bristleneck I thought that the Bradford fire disaster was when we played Charlton Athletic at home when we won 5-1.
Best at home was when we beat QPR to win the Premier League for the first time. Worst losing to Wigan in the FA cup final. I don't know why but I was not convinced that we would win that day.

Excluding performances or magnitude of the games, just match day experience
Best: Fulham away Pellegrinis first season, early train down, great boozers on way from Euston to Craven Cottage, great away end right on the thames
Worst: Wolves away under Mancini, nothing round the ground, stuck at side of the pitch, crap atmosphere

Best: Burnley away 1969. The only time me and my Dad went to an away match together and, God bless him, he probably spent half his weeks wages on that trip for me. Finglands coach 25/- each, posh seats 12/6 each, programme, food etc.
Worst: 8-1 at Middlesbrough wasn't great, bloody freezing, but Celtic away was shite. Ticket collection fiasco, absolutely soaked to the skin, still wet the following day coming home, dickhead Celtic fans and a disappointing draw

Blackburn promotion was a great day out capped by a flattering 4-1 win to seal back to back promotions. Used to enjoy pub crawl from Darwen station to Ewood, would imagine a few of those pubs are sadly no more.
Not so much for the match, which we lost but Hamburg away friendly with Keegan in 2002(?) was a great trip. Big turnout of blues for a european away outside of Wales.
Worst days, Cardiff in cup in 94 was a bad day all round.

League Cup Final v Wolves 1974 without a doubt. City played well enough, their rookie keeper (Pierce?) played out of his skin, we lost 2-1 and I cursed Rodney Marsh for missing a sitter - he was teed up and I expected him to smash the ball in, but for some reason he side-footed it weakly and the keeper had no trouble saving.
On the way home up the motorway, all the City & Wolves supporters were going the same way and traffic ground to a halt. I looked in my rear-view mirror and could see this car coming up behind me and showing no signs of slowing down. and then.....CRUNCH.......
Me & him got out in the middle lane to study the damage. He was an old dodderer, shouldn't have been let out on his own. I couldn't manoeuvre on to the hard shoulder, as there was solid traffic on the inside lane.
At least his insurance paid, but what with all the inconvenience of repairs and a crap result, I was heartily sickened.

I went to that one alone as I was living in Hounslow at the time. Away end was loud and there was a bizarre Kompany OG. Ran out comfortable winners in the end. I saw a bloke doing yoga in his underpants in that park by the river on the way to the match. I also bumped into the Chicken Hut lads who were so pissed that they thought i'd been on the coach down with them.
