    Re: FAO: Eric

    That's too hard because the date is different every year!

    Re: FAO: Eric

    Here's the entire Pancake day roll of honour for you.

    3 Mar 1987 Halifax Town H D 0-0
    3 Mar 1992 Walsall H W 2-1
    20 Feb 1996 Darlington H L 0-2
    11 Feb 1997 Hartlepool United A W 3-2
    24 Feb 1998 Rotherham United H D 2-2
    7 Mar 2000 AFC Bournemouth H L 1-2
    12 Feb 2002 Brentford A L 1-2
    4 Mar 2003 Brentford A W 2-0
    20 Feb 2007 West Bromwich Albion A L 0-1
    16 Feb 2010 West Bromwich Albion H D 1-1
    8 Mar 2011 Crystal Palace A L 0-1
    17 Feb 2015 Blackburn Rovers H D 1-1
    13 Feb 2018 Bolton Wanderers H W 2-0
    25 Feb 2020 Nottingham Forest H L 0-1
    16 Feb 2021 Luton Town A W 2-0
    1 Mar 2022 Derby County H W 1-0

    10 at home, 6 away. 6 wins, 4 draws, 6 defeats. Frankie Burrows was manager for 2 pancake day games, both draws. Dave Jones was the manager for the most number of pancake day games, drawing 1 and losing 2. West Brom and Brentford are our most popular pancake day opponents; it was somewhat bizarre to have played at Brentford on two successive pancake days!

    Eric you are a phenomenon, whether this is true or not!

    This was the first time it has happened.

    St Dai's results:

    1 Mar 1924 Huddersfield Town A L 0-2
    1 Mar 1930 Bradford Park Avenue H W 2-0
    1 Mar 1947 Southend United H W 3-1
    1 Mar 1952 West Ham United H D 1-1
    1 Mar 1969 Crystal Palace A L 1-3
    1 Mar 1975 Manchester United A L 0-4
    1 Mar 1980 Chelsea A L 0-1
    1 Mar 1983 Reading H D 0-0
    1 Mar 1986 Derby County A L 1-2
    1 Mar 1988 Halifax Town A W 1-0
    1 Mar 1991 Burnley H W 3-0
    1 Mar 1994 Burnley H W 2-1
    1 Mar 2003 Stockport County A D 1-1
    1 Mar 2008 Leicester City H L 0-1
    1 Mar 2022 Derby County H W 1-0

    6 wins, 3 draws, 6 defeats. 16 scored, 17 conceded. At least we've won 5 and drawn 2 of our 8 home games on St David's day. Away from home we've won 1 out of 7, losing 5.

    It wasn't difficult to work out from a list of pancake day dates. If there's any wrong I am happy to be battered.

    Re: FAO: Eric

    🤣 Our form is like the perfect formula for a pancake and a welsh cake. It's mad how things like that happen.

    6-4-6 = Perfect pancake.

    6-3-6 = Welshcake.

    You can't make that up.

    You've done yourself proud tonight. First time we've done the Pancacke/Welshcake combo. What a night to remember.

    Is that 636 Welsh cake our currant form?

    I'll get my coat, but before I leave I'd be interested to know how our Ash Wednesday form compares to that on Shrove Tuesdays?

    A night to remember, but it was a crepe game.

    We beat Southend United 3-1 in 1947.
