This evokes memories of a traumatic 5-0 defeat there in the FA Trophy back in January 1990:

If memory serves me correctly a certain Paul Showler ripped us apart that day. We signed him when Colne went belly-up. Who was their forward who also had a short spell with us? He also scored one of the 5 goals.

I don't have the Colne team or goalscorers from that match, but Mike Carter?
