Remember that day well. I was playing for my Uni team which included 2 Bournemouth fans; boy! Did I enjoy giving them stick! .......Payback time 40-odd years later (Look, Where they are now!)as they keep reminding me!

Rick Cowdery's book 'On this day' records the four scorers before half-time and states Delve scored the fifth immediately after the break. So my memory of the 0-4 on the board at Swindon appears to be right, not that it matters much. Just wish I'd been there.

I remember it well, biggest scoring game I have ever seen. Never forget John Delve scoring a rare goal (for him).
I was in the RN at the time based at HMS Osprey in Portland, Dorset. I was without transport at the time and remember well hitchhiking and using buses to get from Portland to Bournemouth and back after the game.
The other thing I remember as if it was yesterday was not being able to get down home to buy an Everton ticket as they were all gone. Got one in the end by writing to Everton direct and telling them that I was stranded in the Navy and asking for help. They sent me 2 tickets FOC, stood in what we knew as the popular side (Lyndhurst). Of course I was surrounded by thousands of scousers. Interesting experience :lol:

I was living in Liverpool at the time and went to see Everton at Goodison that day. They announced the Argyle score at 0-4 ( I thought it was half time) and the announcer made a bit of a thing of it as the cup match was coming up.

The irony was that the reverse fixture at home was only a 2 - 2 draw in front of over 19,000. I am sure a lot pitched up anticipating a goal feast again. They were disappointed, including me!

Ive just consulted Harley's book and glad someone else has confirmed the 0-4. Pity really as IJN's confrontation with Rick could have been interesting. Happy though that mym memory is holding up despite being born at the end of the war.

Iā€™d argue with Rich but never Harley Lawyer! :greensmile:

How very strange, my memory tells me 5-0 at HT then they came storming back.

I was 8 years old. Was there with Dad (who was working in the press box). Parked up in a park and walked to Dean Court. Brilliant first half. I think Mike Green scored an own goal which led to their comeback. Cue panic. I then would have to wait around for an hour after whilst he wrote his report. Dad will be chuffed his book is being referenced. I shall send him this link. Cheers.
