The heaviest defeat I've witnessed following the Boro away

I was at the quarter final replay. Didn't have the desire for Leeds thankfully. Still don't do Leeds much. Maybe next season lol!
 
I remember that day unfortunately. Alan Clarke scored twice as did Arthur Graham and the other Leeds scorer was Ray Hankin!

I was there Erimus with my Dad, my first away game 5-0 .We left at 4-0 much to my disappointment. I heard a roar and thought we had got one back but alas it was 5 nowt...went the next season and we got beat 3-1. I seem to think Millsy scored first and then got sent off !

At the end of the game we were locked in till the crowd dispersed, seemed forever, given the few days Boro had endured, knocked iutvof THE FAC QF against a team we should have beaten, then lose 5-0 to our rivals while listening to the Leeds fans behind the goal singing 'we' ve never been to Wembley' the lockin was the straw that broke the camels back
