1998: West Ham United 6-0 Barnsley

Samassi Abou struck twice and set up another goal, while John Hartson produced three assists, as West Ham United thumped Barnsley 6-0 at the Boleyn Ground.

Frank Lampard gave the Hammers a fifth-minute lead, and Hartson then laid on both of Abou's goals either side of the break.

Abou turned provider as John Moncur made it 4-0, and Hartson got his own name on the scoresheet before setting up Stan Lazaridis for a final late strike.

West Ham moved to seventh with 34 points while Barnsley stayed rooted to the bottom of the table on 18 points, five from safety.

2004: Blackburn Rovers 3-4 Bolton Wanderers

Kevin Nolan scored twice as Bolton Wanderers came from 3-1 down to win a seven-goal thriller against Blackburn Rovers at Ewood Park.

Nolan put Bolton 1-0 up after just 14 seconds, but Vratislav Gresko equalised a minute later and former Manchester United duo Andrew Cole and Dwight Yorke put Blackburn in command before half-time.

Bolton battled back though, with Youri Djorkaeff and Stelios Giannakopoulos netting to level the score, and Nolan hit a 78th-minute winner.

Wanderers moved up to 11th on 26 points, while Blackburn dropped to 16th with 22 points, three points above the bottom three.
