I was there for both and I'm pretty sure the 5-1 was the season after the 3-2 opening day defeat. The only thing good about the 5-1 was that CKR scored the best goal of the game by far when i think we were already 4 or 5 down.
My worst game is the Huddersfield 7-1. Not just for the match though, I was staying on the outskirts of Huddersfield as i was working up that way for a couple of days and i got a call from the hotel after about 20 minutes telling me my car had been broken into in the car park. During the phone call we equalised, Liam Dickenson i think with an absolute screamer, the 400 odd fans were jumping for joy and i was on the phone trying to hear what had happened to my car. By the time i got off the phone we were already 2-1 down and then FDM got sent off......we got smashed 7-1 and i couldn't even celebrate our goal. That was about 2 months before GP took the reins, and that night AEA had an absolute shocker at left back i seem to recall.
When i got back to the hotel they showed me the CCTV, a real professional hit, Range Rover turns up, 4 guys jump out and within 30 seconds had broken into 5 or 6 car boots, got what they could and drove off. Luckily I had nothing of value in the boot and no damage done to the car, just a slight dent on the key hole where they rammed something in the lock to open it.
