RodleyRam Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 A 4-0 home defeat by Wolves in the 90s. Sunday afternoon and it was on the telly too. The ossie end was a depressing place. Steve Bull hattrick? I'm sure that was play off vs lesta season but a horrible horrible game, i was about 9 and didnt think i'd ever be happy again!

AndyinLiverpool Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 Steve Bull hattrick? I'm sure that was play off vs lesta season but a horrible horrible game, i was about 9 and didnt think i'd ever be happy again! Yep. One of those games where the opposition look like they are going to score with every attack and they pretty much did. Not helped by the fact that I was living in Wolverhampton at the time and could see their ground every time I left the house. Scarred. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trekkie_ram Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 Just thought of another disappointment...Boro in FA Cup quarter final. IIRC: We got smashed in the league 6-1 by Boro, and then came the cup game, I think we lost 1-0. I remember watching with my Dad on TV, I think either shown on TV as delayed, or we recorded it and watched it after coming home from 'something'. Depressing Chesterfield would have beaten us - lol.

Dimmu Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 Standing with it ******* down with rain at non league Crawley. Lost 2-1 with them scoring a last minute winner and all their fans running on the pitch waving us off. Made me physically sick. This has to be worst in recent years or at least it irritates me most. Commons missed penalty, Crawley manager (Evans?) being total barstewart, last minute winner and we were outplayed by non league club. Pure crap except Pringe, who had pretty good game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddie Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 Losing to Man U in Semi final of FA Cup at Hillsborough. Gordy Hill ruined our day. I have little more else to add - it marked the start of the decline. Nish had a perfectly good goal disallowed and Roger Davies missed a free header from a yard. If either of those had gone in/counted, we MIGHT have won, we MIGHT have gone on to win at Wembley and Tommy Docherty MIGHT never have happened.

Duracell Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 4-1 to Scunny and the 1-0 to Crawley were very very bleak defeats. I think the worst has to be when we lost 5-0 at home to West Ham ressies, with a crocked Lee Bowyer running the show. Eurgh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mostyn6 Posted October 11, 2013 Author Share Posted October 11, 2013 Mmmm........i never quite get this wallowing in misery...... The worst game The worst player The worst manager The latest hate figure The player who most deserves to be dropped Etc etc Close my eyes and count to ten Boulton, Webster Robson Durban Mcfarland Mackay Mcgovern Carlin O'hare HECTOR !! Thats better. Not quite sure anyone is wallowing in any misery, if anything, this thread should make you think of when times were worse, and by default, realise that things aren't that bad right now... thus, this is a 'positive' thread!

Mostyn6 Posted October 11, 2013 Author Share Posted October 11, 2013 your right he got 3 my mistake still bad though even more so as they played the hat-trick goals on any reel of highlights when talking about Emile Heskey! Particularly the one he mis-hit with the outside of his right foot and would've skewiffed wide if he was 8 inches further from goal! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rynny Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 Couldn't remember if it was 0-1 or 1-2. Think either Ravanelli or Juninho scored the winnerThought it was 2-0? Martin Taylor's return from a broken leg, Russell Hoult was dire at Boro when we lost 6-1, the best thing about that game was Simmo's free kick right at the end, great free kick.

Ambitious Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 A few of mine... Plymouth 3 - 1 Derby County Plymouth 2 - 0 Derby County Went to both, travelling down on coach and losing to Plymouth is about as fun as a poke in the eye with a hot knife. I remember both so vividly. Derby County 1 - 4 Ssausagehorpe That game was rough, so so so rough - freezing too. I wasn't around for the Leicester play-offs but more than remember the Preston game, it was horrible - I really went into that thinking we were ready for premier league football, even a trip to wembley but we were bossed up and down the pitch, really was a one-sided game that proved we weren't upto it. and obviously, the two games that I will never shake, as long as I live.. Nottingham Forest 3 - 0 Derby County... screams for Kinkladze to come on, followed by 'goodbye John Gregory' - horrible. Nottingham Forest 5 - 2 Derby County two quick fire Forest goals (which seemed pretty standard at games at Forest) followed by more misery piled on. Game seemed like a firm kick in the ********.

VulcanRam Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 We might have kept Leighton James and not got Don Masson. As a side note remember this between James and Savage.http://youtu.be/WRXvw4PeEYg. Part 2http://youtu.be/02hVBMqGnWc Ha, that was a good listen, if only Savage had been good to his word "I don't want to become a pundit and slaughter players every week".

Ram_in_Cumbria Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 I know its been said by a few already but stnding on the Popside watching us lose to lower league Plymouth in that FA Cup QF was baaaad! ...and yes the fester play-off final, nuff said. Also any away trip to Middlesborough, always go with my best mate (a boro fan) and yet to see us win! Couple of highlights (just so I'm not too depressed)... Down at the Den for the Millwall second leg play off final and one a bit obscure, seeing Paul Blades score his only Derby goal (30 yard screamer of a free kick past Ogrizovic) at BBG vs Coventry (was a poor game but I knew Paul and was made up for him) Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
