    Who was there? I was and can remember ironically cheering John Buchanan's last minute goal as I made my way out of the ground by the corner of the Grange End and Bob Bank. Can also recall Sheffield's grey headed veteran winger Alan Woodward scoring a trademark long range goal which was applauded by many of those present - we let in six the following week as well when we were beaten 6-3 at Bolton.
    My memory must be failing me I thought it was 6-3 at home against Luton.

    I was there and although my memory of the game is a little bit hazy, I recall that every time they had a shot on goal it seemed to find the back of the net. I think Simon Stainrod may have scored a couple. It was one of those games where we were not outplayed but one in which Sheffield Utd put away all their chances.

    I was at the Sheffield Utd hammering. It was the second worst performance I have witnessed as a Cardiff City supporter - the worst being against Maidstone at the beginning of the Rick Wright era.

    Was a few years before I started going, luckily lol. First time I ever saw us play Sheffield Utd was for Godfrey Ingram’s debut in 82.

    I was there For the Sheffield United debacle. We followed it up by scoring three the following week at Bolton. Unfortunately they put bloody 6 past us too though.

    That Moscow Dynamo game just after the war must have taken the breath away and I think we had quite a decent side at the time even though we were third division south. 10-1 was steamrollering of the highest order.

    I attended both Sheffield United and Bolton Wanderers debacles when we scored 4 versus the oppositions’ 12 goals!
