I hope someone can help me with this query as I need the answer for (of all things) a funeral service on this Friday for my mum (lifelong R's supporter from Askew Road).
There was a home game, mid 70s, where we scored 7 goals (I recall but may be wrong) and the goal keeper for the other side (Perhaps a Sheffield side but probably wrong) was playing his first senior game.
At the end of the game, the Rangers players, Bowles, Venables, Francis went over to the keeper and walked off with him, putting their arms around him!
It was shown on the Big Match the next day and Brian Moore pointed out the empathy and consideration of the players for having done so.
Can someone please help me - correcting me if I am wrong re the score!

Allen only got two. He hit the post with a relative sitter from close range for his hat trick which Glenn Roeder happily followed up and tapped in for 7-0. In the MOTD video (as it was one of the two featured matches that day) you see Roeder wheeling away being congratulated by his team mates whilst poor Clive has got his head in his hands! (1:52 in the video)
Team that day: Woods Shanks Gillard Roeder Wicks McCreery Bowles Wallace Burke Allen Goddard Sub: Walsh

Saw the Roeder interception and dribble ( with shuffle) out of the back, Edwards almost did the same vs Blackburn. Roeder and Wicks, great partnership
