*Just for the record, when Blackburn Rovers lost 7-0 to Fulham in a Championship match at Ewood Park on 3rd November 2021, the defeat came more than 123 years after Blackburn’s previous 7-0 defeat, a Division One match against Sheffield United at Bramall Lane on 9th January 1897. This is a still standing league record for the longest spell between a club obtaining the same score line in two matches.

That's an amazing stat, considering it's not the early days of football. I wonder if the 1959 0-0 was celebrated at the time!
