My first ever game - December 1968.
That match with Nantes finished 5-1 and then we beat Hull by the same score in Toshack's last home game a few weeks later.
Here's a game we won 5-0

We beat Oxford 5-0 in September 73 as well with Andy McCulloch scoring a hat trick and, putting my boring statto hat on, the Rothmans Football Yearbook showed for a decade or more after that Oxford's record defeat was a couple of 5-0 losses in Cardiff.
That was brilliant entertainment. You're right about Alston scoring a hat trick, Tony Evans got two and I think Anderson got the other one - Anderson and Buchanan tore Exeter to shreds and that was the first time I thought we could be on our way to the first promotion I'd seen in thirteen years of supporting the club.
So our KNOWN 5-0 home wins in the football league are....
Rotherham YESTERDAY

Who have we got here next week...Oh hang on.

Oh yes what legends remember Alston shooting straight from kick off against Brighton where their keeper Mellor ran into the post trying to save it. We lost a really one sided game how I don't know !
I was talking to a friend under the Canton just before kick off,and he said he fancied us to score 5. I wish Id put a 1 on us for that score.
So our KNOWN 5-0 home wins in the football league are....
Corrected.
Apologies to the poster above who pointed out the Cambridge result.
