Got my answer.

The 4-0 lead of Arsenal against Newcastle in 2011 became a 4-4, only 4 goal lead to drop points.

 

Plenty of 3s, my favourite being Spurs losing 5-3 having been 3-0 up to Manchester United.

 

Similarly, Angola were 4-0 up in the African Cup of Nations in 2010 with just 12 minutes to play, and Mali came back to draw 4-4.

Got to try and get a win against Bournemouth later or we could be cut adrift with Fulham and Huddersfield as things stand.

 

No easy task and I'm hoping I don't regret dragging myself down there despite feeling like shit 2 weeks after a hernia op.

 

1-0!

Also on the scoring front, Kilmarnock lost the first leg of their Fairs Cup tie with Eintracht Frankfurt 3-0, back in 1964, then conceded a fourth early on in the second leg. 

 

They won 5-1. 

 

Away goals weren't a feature then though, or this could have been an effective 5 goal deficit.

I haven’t seen the incident but I assume the opposition player actually got a gun out and shot somebody.

 

And even then the linesman will have had to have a word.

A cracking win, great performances across the board and very pleased to get a clean sheet especially as Bournemouth looked very dangerous in the first half.

 

Some nice tributes to Sala throughout and after the worst of months on and off the pitch for the Bluebirds - it's nice to have something to smile about.

No surprise really, Bournemouth a)still haven't been told the idea is to keep the ball out of the back of the net and b) travel very well.

Ok, we'll take him. 

 

He actually only left because the board refused to give him the money to sign a couple of cloggers called Yeats and St John :facepalm:

 

We had Ray Wilson and a very young Denis Law in the team at the time too (we sold the latter to buy some floodlights). What might've been.

I hate that Son is a Spurs player because I love him. Finally got around to putting him in my FL team so have been watching him all game and he's just great. Pops up all over the place, constantly chasing the ball and seems to have such a good attitude. He's the current day Dirk Kuyt. 

He's got a bit to go to be up there with Dirk, but I'm with you there, he is awesome to watch. He'd fit in lovely at Liverpool, maybe when Poch leaves Spurs he might fancy a move.

I was at the Cardiff match as well, and the tributes were nicely done.

 

As for the match itself, Bournemouth had a lot of the ball but couldn't get through, and Cardiff always looked dangerous on the break. Bamba was excellent, Niasse's running was always a threat. Two quite strange goals - the most inexplicable handball for the penalty, then everyone stopping because they thought Bobby Ried was offside for the second. Cardiff deserved the win, and Bournemouth look impotent without Wilson and Brooks - Solanke was rubbish.

Massive next week - if we can avoid defeat against Southampton then we've got two difficult, but not impossible home games (Watford and Everton) to maybe pick up some more points from given our home record against the mid tier teams is pretty decent.

 

My concern is while I don't think we will be caught by Fulham or Huddersfield, I'm not sure which out of Burnley, Newcastle or Southampton we can overtake as they all look in better shape

than they did a few weeks ago.

Yeah, It was great and the Club did well.  The team played brilliantly too. Full credit to the Bournemouth fans too. We looked great going forward and Niasse looks to be great bit of business
