tyldesley_white Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 Most depressing thread on WW ever. FACT. It does bring back a lot of bad memories Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adambwfc Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 I've never got over Deano's miss, so for that alone it's gotta be that. At least we're now better than the Scarborough's etc. of the world and beaten the scum. Holdsworth scoring would have seen us in the last FA Cup Final at Wembley, as Satan said that can never happen again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowball Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 http://www.statto.com/football/stats/results/1988-11-12 Thanks Leigh White. I was in Durham that weekend visiting a girl I'd met on holiday in Magaluf so that stopped it being the worst day ever, but footballing wise it came close. bloody hell over twenty years ago!

marple whites Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 Ipswich play off Tranmere play off (cried) Relegation at Chelsea (even cried following day) Sheff Wednesday away 5-0 Derby away 4-0 Watford play off final Torquay away 2-0 (Phil Neal then got sacked) Black sunday 3-0 up at Watford and losing 2-1 up at Rotherham and they scored in injury time, so we lost out on goal difference losing the Swindon cup tie epic I can't depress myself any further !!

real aletico Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 I was at Scarborough but I never got that horrible crappy feeling in the pit of my stomach that the other ones gave. We were crap then and we knew it, plus it was a good day out I think the worst defeats are the ones were the dream actually dies i.e. play off defeat, relegation, cup exit etc. Or losing to our dear neighbours of course. Notts County away was actually more of a laugh than a bad memory. I remember some lad who had got stuck in traffic coming in late and asking me the score. Once I had convinced him we were 6 down before half time he promptly said 'fck this' and pissed off back down the tunnel. And people wonder why most on here get pissed off with the moaners today. Thanks for reminding me about Oldham in the cup, almost managed to forget that one. Patterson fannying around, mud heap of a pitch and that fat barsteward Beckford who was utter shite and had done nothing in the whole match. It's all coming back now and it still rankles! Notts County...we got there at half time and were informed by a helpful policeman not to bother going in, as we were already 6-0 down. Ho Ho Ho, yes of course we are, constable. Yes of course, we were. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 Holdsworth miss for me. Close second was losing to Bristol City in the Freight Rover just because I lived in Bristol and played darts with a gang of City fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whisky Face Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 Has to be Holdsworth's pathetic miss. Especially as it was obvious we'd lose the penalty shoot-out. Victory to defeat in 2 seconds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mannyroad vet Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 how about that wolves match in the 70s when they beat us to get promotion instead of us. was at my sisters wedding that day at the swan hotel. my brother in law always used to take me to all the matches so why re chose that day to get married i never know. anyway 5 mins after we left those golden shirt wearing urine drinking brummie fcukers came in and wrecked the place.had a venomous hatred of them since that day.that picture of neil whatmore on his knees stll haunts me.

Moderators Casino Posted May 5, 2009 Moderators Share Posted May 5, 2009 ive got it in my head we lost midweek home games in both the failing seasons one against carlisle and one against york must have been about the same stage of their respective seasons games that probably cost us promotion and tbh a few years in the top division by the time we went up the team had passed its best the team btw that was boring cos it passed the ball from the back...........ooohhhh the irony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fengshui Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 Obvious one's like Ipswich and Holdsworth miss, but also..... Tranmere away, league cup 2nd leg in 2000. We got stuffed 3-0.

Guest as Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 Obvious one's like Ipswich and Holdsworth miss, but also..... Tranmere away, league cup 2nd leg in 2000. We got stuffed 3-0. I'm still haunted by Tranmere fans singing "Aldo, give us a wave". That was the worst game I've ever been too, and had the joy of a glory-hunting munich housemate still being up when I got back 'told you they'd lose'. Fucking glory-hunters have no idea Ipswich - their fans laughing outside after Knight had taken Sheepshanks brown envelope. Deano - annoying miss when you consider how often he scored in Atlantis.
