Last Sunday was hard to take!

For me it's was a result that left feeling absolutely gutted after a game. Not due to the result, but because of the performance of the team when it was a big game for whatever reason! But I have also seen them get beat after leaving everything on the Pitch and being buzzing that they wanted to win as much as us!

ASHAMED LOSSES
1) Wigan FA Cup Final
2)2007 FA cup QF loss v Blackburn
3) Last Sunday
all massive games, all gutless performances!

PROUD LOSSES
1) 2011 Rooney overhead loss at the swamp, They knew the game was up, just as Buzzer said!
2) Real Madrid last Season in the CL Semi
3) 2022 Real Madrid CL Semi last minute goals
The best team lost in all 3 games!

God that Wigan cup final was hard to take. Went and cried my eyes out (was 13 but I'd probably do the same now)

I think the fa cup final this year was really bad too. Not a single way we should've lost that.

The spurs UCL match where we thought sterling had won it only for newly introduced VAR to rip it away from us despite being unable to disallow a goal scored with a hand earlier in the match
 
Madrid
Going through until Rodrygo got 2 late goals to bring it to extra time and then Dias gave away a needless penalty.

Spurs in champions league. Masterclass in how to lose a game that seemed impossible to lose.
The Llorente " handball" goal and sterling goal ruled out. Everything seemed to be farcical.
 
I don't know about lowest, thats probably some of thr losses we had in division 2 but losing to Lyon in the champions league was up there. It was ours for the taking that year.

Fowler missing a penalty against Boro to deny us European football was very cruel, that felt like our one shot at getting European football.
 
Beating Stoke 5-2 and still getting relegated. 13 years old and wondering what the fuck I was wasting my time for.

CL final against Chelsea. I was utterly convinced we'd walk that final. Then the lineup got announced and I knew we were fucked. Never watched any of it back, I couldn't even tell you who scored for Chelsea.

Spurs CL QF. I was that angry I nearly twatted a gloating Spud on the way back to the car. Ruined the game as a whole for me that night and I've attended about 10 games since after going home and away for nearly 25 years. Unable to celebrate a goal since unless it's an absolute thunderbastard as I'm just waiting for it to be disallowed, and when it isn't, the moment is gone.
 
Lowest ever and people are mostly quoting matches from the Mansour and Pep eras?

Recency bias must be at work (or just younger users) because some of those games during the dark times were absolutely horrific compared when compared to the worst days of today.

Lowest I’ve ever felt was probably when Bob Taylor scored to make it 2-0 to Gillingham at Wembley. When that goal went in it was a painful gut punch which left me wondering about the future of the club.

Note - the thread title and op was completely changed while I was writing this post. Originally it was lowest moment/match supporting City.
 
1-0 loss at Arsenal in April 2012.

This was the game which put us 8 points behind the rags and the moment I realised that we'd thrown away our big chance to win the title. Little did I know what the following month would bring.

I'll also throw in the FA Cup Final in 81 vs Spurs was a tough one for me as a young lad

I think it has changed more than once now.

On the other hand, had we beat Spurs, we would be playing United at home again tomorrow night, with 8,000 of the cunts wearing the same CP Company coats that they wore to have a 'straighter' with 60-70 Twente 'lads' in Lower Broughton the night before they played them the other week!

IMAGINE that!

I'm middle aged ,go back to the maine rd days but 2b honest it hurts more now, I'm getting fuckin worse as I age
 
The 1981 FA Cup Final Replay - both games were live on TV here in NZ (one in the early hours the second at breakfast time - Joe Corrigan man of both matches but we were undone by Argentinian magic.
 
Angry
1. 2-5 V Spurs FA Cup 1/4 final at Maine Road
My teenage mind could taste my first Wembley and we turned in a shocker. One if not only time I left a game early, livid. Was in my car on Claremont Road before I realised City (Terry Phelan) had scored and it had kicked off.

2. 2-3 V Spurs FA Cup Final replay.
Couldn't afford the trip for the Thursday replay so watched on TV. Had to leave the house and go for a walk so my mum couldn't see the tears welling up. Was both angry and gutted.

3. 2-3 V United at the Etihad in a game where we would win the league and show those cunts who was the new boss in town. Where we would rub their fucking noses in it. Sterling missing 2 one on one's yet still were two up at half time and coasting to then throw it away to that fucking french drug cheat and a vastly inferior shower of red shite.
No. 3 is rather similar to both last years Cup Final and last weekends capitulation. I can hack losing a derby, fuck me I've seen us lose enough, but not like that FFS.

Proud.

1. Not many losses I can think of where i was proud. The loss away V Notts County 3-2 when we were chasing promotion when we took over 3 sides of the ground. I was proud of our fans and club but the team was a shambles that day at 3-0 down at half time.

2. 0-1 V Luton. Raddy fucking Antic and the kerb crawlers white shoes skipping on Maine Road.

3. 2-1 V Leeds at the old Ellend Road. Putting in a great performance and being pipped by a very decent Leeds side but turned up in big numbers and outsung the Yorkshire sheep shaggers all game. Highlight being the FA Cup draw on the way back and being drawn against Leeds in the next round to huge cheers.
