Last time we scored a league goal against Arsenal?

No - though it's actually 56 years since we did that but as this was only our third league game against them in that time then that's not unusual enough.

Just a guess, the first time in fifty four years that the scorers in a match with five goals all came from different countries?

And when was the last time we went behind four times in a league game?

[BINGE THINKING]

And when was the last time we went behind four times in a league game?

I'm not sure that's ever happened but happy to be proved wrong. My first thoughts were City v Stoke (4-4) in 59/60 or Rotherham v City (6-4) in 65/66 but it didn't happen in either of those games.

Ask myself why I come on this site sometimes,
Then a thread like this happens,
Thanks for making me smile.

[MacAdder]

More than likely, yes. I had to forget the names of my wife and children to get that in.

Jokes aside, I used to laugh at my mum calling my siblings and I the wrong names but it seems I've been paid back.
I remember people from the 70's for instance but I'm finding I'm forgetting current, really basic things, like calling close friends by another name!
