dylanisabaddog 4,877 Posted December 25, 2020 The game included a 3 minute hat trick which I think is still a record. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Making Plans 936 Posted December 25, 2020 (edited) Both posters so far know the answer. However, for the 50 viewers who have so far failed to post an answer, the game was one of 10 games played in the football league Division One on Boxing Day that produced a total of 66 goals.

CanaryChris 146 Posted December 25, 2020 (edited) Through hermans post I got it. I won't post the answer, but it was a game full of goals. I think most now know who the big losers were. Edited December 25, 2020 by CanaryChris 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CanaryChris 146 Posted December 25, 2020 I make it 66 goals MP. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Making Plans 936 Posted December 26, 2020 (edited) 2 hours ago, CanaryChris said: I make it 66 goals MP. Sorry, my mistake, 66 it was. (original post ammended) So that's 11 goals from that missing match and one of the 2 teams involved managed to score just the 1. Match report said - "They were woeful and had conceded 58 times prior to the Boxing Day clash. They finished the season bottom, shipping 121 goals in the process.
