Before half-time the player-manager had made it 3-1, and a late flurry of four goals in seven minutes (Dennis Wise, a Tore Andre Flo brace, and a consolation for Marcus Bent) completed the Blues’ biggest margin victory over the south Londoners. The Blues’ 2-1 win in March was a far cagier affair than it needed to be thanks to chances missed by the hosts. Watch the highlights below.
