The only notable game in the whole 1960s decade on this day 7th April 1962 - Newly promoted Ipswich Town in their debut top flight season visit Old Trafford and crash 5-0 to Manchexter United:


Just 3 weeks later Ipswich were crowned Champions.
Such was the topsy turvey nature of football in the 1960s Ipswich were relegated 2 seasons later in 1964.
What are the chances of such occurences in the Premiership era?
