I am surprised to see that little Apoel Nicosia are top of Group G in the Champions League. However, does anyone remember the time they came to The Valley? We won 9-0. I think Rodney Green scored a hat trick.

Len Glover scored a few that night. Thought it might have been three, but I don't recall two hat-tricks.

I think it was late in the season '66 or '67. A good night.
Apoel had played the evening before at Arsenal and drawn 1-1, which our result even better.
Remember the game & scoreline but nothing about the scorers. If pressed would say a year or two later but such a long time ago can't be sure.
GlassHF are you sure it was 1-1 at Arsenal ? I thought it was 0-0
Couldn't swear to it, but seem to remember that part of the shock result against Arsenal was that Apoel managed to get a goal.
