It may be apochryphal, but I read of the Scottish radio presenter who had
problems with
Forfar 5 East Fife 4.

"As far as I can trace, the only score line similar to this in matches
between East Fife and Forfar was Forfar 5 East Fife 4 in a Division
Two match on 22 April 1964."

My favourite apochryphal football score is:

Wolves 8
A cheese roll and had a cup of tea 2.
