I'd say 'at least you didn't live in Worcester at the time' but literally no one there supports Worcester.Losing at home to Worcester in the cup was fucking awful too.
Team that day..

This is the game that most springs to mind when I referred to bad days in the premier league. Its very rare that I think I could do a better job than premier league footballers but that day I could have got a run out in pretty much any position.

Another was Tony Mowbray’s first game in charge at Barnsley on a fucking cold night.
We all thought it was the dawning of a new era and that he was our saviour.
Cue another fucking insipid performance as we lost woefully and players getting rightful dogs abuse as they had to walk past the away supporters and down the tunnel.

Away to Gillingham when Peter Reid was manager was possibly the worst away match i went to.
3-1 defeat, between xmas and new year.
The venom directed at Reid (and the players) as they left the pitch was something else.

My darkest day was when @BlueSkiesForever decided to post war and peace length posts everyday about how we need to spend 2-3m on back up right backs

Got posters of Tolstoy on my walls at home, my absolute idol that bloke
I also think he published a short commentary on the social and political issues that arise from not having a decent back up at RB and CM, don’t quote me on that though

I remember feeling very disillusioned early in our championship relegation season under Andy Thorn. We were 1-0 up after 92 minutes at Crystal Palace and managed to lose the game 2-1. It was only the 3rd/ 4th game of the season i think, but even at the point i knew we were going down.
Nothing will ever top the Mark Venus/ Russell Slade era though. It felt like there was absolutely no light at the end of the tunnel.

Think we managed to do something similar away at Blackpool the very same season. Depressing as fuck.

Ironically that game was probably one our better performances, although of course that is judged against a very low benchmark. Wasn't that also the game where that little 15 year old jumped the barrier to knock a cocky Sheff U fan on his arse?

That was the only time I had a season ticket and decided not to go and watch it on TV.

I remember a 2-2 draw at a midweek fixture vs cardiff, which I think was that season. We were 2-0 down and somehow got 2 goals.
Despite the come back the atmosphere in our end was that of team that were doomed. It was not great.

FGR away in the league was a massive low too. Fans arguing so much. Racist/homophobic chants.
Thank fuck it’s over.

As I said before - anyone who enjoyed that season is lying to themselves. Notts county away in the play offs and the final were the best parts about it.
league two was a dark stain on this club

I was horrible, I just choose to remember the play offs though. Was like a spring board for the club.

I had some good times just because I was with friends and family but the general vibe was awful.
