The current aggregate win record stands at 11 here are the five times that feat has been achieved.

Liverpool 11-0 Exeter, 1981-82

The previous record was ‘just’ 8-0 on aggregate, by Southampton against Wrexham two years earlier. The Reds blew that out of the water with the first double-figure margin, winning 5-0 at home and 6-0 at St James Park with Ian Rush scoring twice in each leg.Ian Rush scored twice in each leg4

West Ham 12-1 Bury, 1983-84

There seemed little prospect of such a rout when the Hammers won just 2-1 in the first leg but a 10-0 second leg, with four goals from a 19-year-old Tony Cottee, changed the complexion of the tie.

Liverpool 13-2 Fulham, 1986-87

That 12-1 aggregate was a record high until surpassed by Liverpool against Fulham in 1986. Steve McMahon scored four and missed a penalty in a 10-0 win at Anfield, with Rush and John Wark also scoring twice apiece, and a 3-2 second leg – with McMahon again on target – set a new highest aggregate.

Watford 11-0 Darlington, 1987-88

Watford got in on the act the following year with an 11-0 aggregate win over Darlington, winning 3-0 in the north-east and then 8-0 back at Vicarage Road with seven different scorers including a Peter Hetherston double.

Everton 11-0 Wrexham, 1990-91

Cottee was at it again as his new employers ran riot, scoring a hat-trick in a 5-0 first-leg win in north Wales and opening the scoring in a 6-0 win at Goodison Park before strike partner Graeme Sharp took centre stage with a treble.Tony Cottee scored a hat-trick in the 5-0 first-leg win over Wrexham4
