We're not the only team to have ever lost 8-1 though...
Amazingly, yesterday (6th Feb) saw the 19 year anniversary of another 8-1 scoreline. One which went down in Premier League history.
The 1998–99 season match between Nottingham Forest and Manchester United at the City Ground took place on 6 February 1999. Manchester United won the match 8–1, thereby recording the largest away win in the history of the Premier League.

Were Notts subconsciously marking the occasion in honour of our illustrious friends over the river??
