The second instance when Liverpool received an 8-1 trouncing came just two years later when they faced Arsenal. Arsenal forwards Ray Bowden and Ted Drake both notched up hat-tricks while Cliff Bastin and Jack Crayston bagged a goal each. Alf Hanson scored Liverpool’s only goal of the match.

3. 9-2 vs Newcastle, 1934

The 1930s is perhaps a decade no Liverpool fans would like to remember. The Reds faced some of their nightmarish defeats during the decade.

One of these came against Newcastle during the 1933-34 season. Hat-tricks from Jimmy Richardson and Sam Weaver along with goals from Jimmy Boyd, Tommy Lang and Ron Williams saw the Magpies trouncing Liverpool 9-2. Harry Taylor was the only Liverpool player to score a goal as their second goal was an own goal from Newcastle’s Alec Betton.

The 9-2 win remains Newcastle’s biggest win over Liverpool and will certainly not be surpassed for a long time.

2. 8-0 vs Huddersfield Town, 1934

“What are you babbling about?” This is the kind of reply one would expect if they told someone that Huddersfield Town thrashed Liverpool 8-0. Unbelievable as it may seem, it’s true.

Leeds Road is an area in Huddersfield which has a retail park. This retail Park once used to be the home ground of Huddersfield Town for no less than 86 years.

In 1934, Huddersfield Town hosted Liverpool in a League match and thrashed them 8-0. This remains to be one of the club’s biggest wins during an era which was a golden one in teh club’s history.

1. 9-1 vs Birmingham City, 1954

Moments after Murphy’s goal, Eddie Brown completed his hat-trick to complete a 9-1 rout of Liverpool for Birmingham. Birmingham eventually went on to win the Second Division and gain promotion while Liverpool finished 11th.
