Shearer 20,57,68, Bohinen 28,76, Newell 82, La Saux 89 were the scorers.

And bang went our 25-game unbeaten run. Which IIRC included a 7-1 win at Hillsborough and winning 2-1 at Old Trafford (maybe that was before).
We were in Europe that season as well, QFs against Bayern Munich (the real Munich)...
For a side finishing 9th we got thrashed a lot. 7-0, 5-1 v Blackburn, 5-0 at Old Trafford (we should have won the game at home 1-0 but ref gave a dodgy pen), and 5-1 in the home leg of the UEFA cup QF. Ouch. We were relegated the season after.
That's not painful but seeing as that was only 10 years in the past makes now more unbearable seeing as it's going to be 2 years minimum before we'll be in the top flight if ever.
Oh and Sheff W 1-7 Forest should be on there seeing as it's only one off the record away win in the PL. None of them are as bad as Ipswich 6-0 Forest from this season though.
