Everton at Burnden semi final, Man U 75 at home, Man U away 3-0 in 79-80 season, Black Sunday, Blackpool when we should have got in the play offs and one I did not go to Stoke away when we got relegated, oh and Charlton away when we got relegated. Theres loads.

All those, Mounts.

But got to add Scarborough (a) and Chelsea (a) when even the Chelsea fans wanted us to get a result, but we lost & went down narrowly - reprieving an undeserving Everton.

In hindsight Tranmere was a blessing as it paved the way for Neal's reign to end a year later.

You and that idiot brother of yours should start showing Neal some respect. He turned the ship round and laid the foundations Rioch built on.

Never seen us win at wembley/Cardiff

Was in Paris for the reading play off win and working for the Preston game.

Boro cup final gets a special mention for me.

 

That's the closest we've been to winning a cup I will ever see in my lifetime.

 

It's also the only time I've shed a tear at a football match as an adult,whilst watching them lift the pot.

 

Stoke and Black Sunday speak for themselves by the way. Both cowardly displays by a bunch of fannies caught in the headlights.

I don't think I'll ever get over the Stoke semi. Last game before I emigrated. Imagine having that as the lasting impression of live footy for several years.

 

No wonder I'm so maladjusted.

This is probably your benchmark then and would explain why you never seem to think it's that bad, when it actually is/was
