BobyBrno Posted August 18, 2024 Posted August 18, 2024 I referenced this in the other thread. This was my reaction at our hotel in Reading after the 7-1 thrashing in 2014. I didn’t wreck the hotel but my wife (who didn’t go to the match) thought I’d gone mental. Stoke (semi final) and Aldershot (playoffs) are up there. Quote
Ani Posted August 18, 2024 Posted August 18, 2024 Doubt anything is worse than Oxford at Wembley, but the 2nd battering off Wigan was close. Quote
BobyBrno Posted August 18, 2024 Author Posted August 18, 2024 The so called Black Sunday (did I say I hate Sunday matches?) when United put six past us😩 My next door neighbour (Red) came to our front window, pissed, with a bag of chips in his hand trying to put 6 fingers up before he fell over. I closed the curtains. Quote
Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted August 18, 2024 Site Supporter Posted August 18, 2024 That utd defeat will take some beating in terms of lack of effort and ability. The aldershot game was just a gradual drop down the gurgler- Felgate's injury seemed to be just another indicator of the inevitable. Quote
TrickyTrotter Posted August 18, 2024 Posted August 18, 2024 Play off final in 99 another insipid performance this time against Watford 0-2, that still rankled until this year's debacle. For pure humiliation the Stoke 5-0 (I thought we had a good chance) and the United 6-0 (capitulated in the last 20 minutes) take some beating. Quote

BOWTUN BAKED Posted August 18, 2024 Posted August 18, 2024 That time I forgot about the yoghurt at the back of the fridge & it went out of date! Quote
Mounts Kipper Posted August 18, 2024 Posted August 18, 2024 (edited) The jimmy phillips peter Reid managerial performance at Bristol city on Birchs stag doo, put that down on the list.. woeful. Edited August 18, 2024 by Mounts Kipper Quote
Duck Egg Posted August 18, 2024 Posted August 18, 2024 Most defeats, I'm over em by bedtime but Stoke and Oxford Wembley games had a long lasting effect on me. Still not over the latter yet. Only ones that come close are those 2 home games v Wigan and that 2-5 at theirs. A really horrible atmosphere as well as a limp wristed performance with Remi Matthews feck up meant I was driving home by about 4.15pm. Quote
Leyther_Matt Posted August 18, 2024 Posted August 18, 2024 Reading was just laughable. Accrington was just surreal and I don’t think I’ve ever actually accepted that it happened. I guess it’s easier to move on when there’s another game the following week, but Christ I’ve never been in such a mood for such a prolonged period time as after the Oxford play-off final. Quote

Whitestar Posted August 18, 2024 Posted August 18, 2024 Remember the QPR plastic pitch disaster 7-0 or 7-1 i can't remember, 0-3 at home to Darlington on bommy night, but for me the most disappointing pi$$ weak performance was 2-2 at home to Birmingham when we should have sent them down, it was nothing to us and we were 2 up, hideous!!!

DaveTheRave Posted August 18, 2024 Posted August 18, 2024 That Southampton cup game in the early 90s. Darby putting us in the lead near the end and then Felgate somehow letting Horne beat him from about 35 yards. Proper sickener. Quote

It swerved and dipped and I thought Felgate did well to get anywhere near it. That match more than any other showed how you can go from a high to a low so quickly. Fantastic turnout from us for a midweek game so far away. 👍 Edited August 18, 2024 by BobyBrno Quote
Moderators Casino Posted August 18, 2024 Moderators Posted August 18, 2024 Cup games, holdsworts villa, pattersons oldham and felgates southampton def hurt But league games that decide the next 12 months are miles worse, so for that reason, charlton, chelsea and stoke, watford, tranmere and oxford Cpl of late season fuck ups under greaves, carlisle and york still remembered too Quote

Stoke when we were relegated was way worse imo Came out of the ground “knowing” that QPR had beaten the Massives. Ho hum. Get on the kids ‘n’ flids knowing that the score that day was irrelevant. Then finding out the real score Me and the youngest were front row right in the middle of the goal. THAT header just needed to go in Never felt worse after a game Quote

When I opened it, there was that much mold, it jumped out & ran across the kitchen tops! Proper upset, it was a cherry one, my favourite! Took months of counselling to get over it! Quote
tomski Posted August 18, 2024 Posted August 18, 2024 Oxford. Fucking pathetic. Lowest was accy. Couldn’t get pitch side for our goal. Had carlsberg sprayed in my face. Then watched them hit us for 7. I challenge anyone there to find a worse game. Quote
