Your personal lowest point as a City fan

[Pagie]

Sat in a bar watching teletext for 90 minutes in Tenerife 1998, away with the lads for our first holiday. The realisation that we had actually sunk down to the third tier, I was hurting that day and the more I thought about it the more upset about it I became, had tears in my eyes aged 17 !! If someone would have told me that 14 years on we will have an FA Cup and League title Id have never believed them !! Im upset about this season too but we have to realise were not gonna win it every year. And were still 2nd and still in the FA Cup.

will give a mention to being at the swamp when Owen scored in 214th min

Losing at home to Bury took some beating.

For me it was 30 seconds before Dickov 99 at Wembley BUT you have to suffer those moments to make the experience that followed the high that it was.

3 down in half hour at county, we were awful, pissed it down all game, no roof, im sorry but youve hit a low point when you can use your megarider to get to an away game.

That put a smile to my face on a cold depressing Monday. Thank You.

Another low point for me, was watching Shefqi Kuqi score at Maine Road, and then do that stupid dive celebration !.But the lowest part was a few of us got invites in to the players lounge after the game, as a bloke I knew was friends with Carlo Nash, anyway we got down there thinking "fuck me this is going to be posh, with loads of fit bints to look at", but as soon as we walked in our faces dropped, because it was like going to a working men's club, with a wank buffet.

Game wise I would have to say, when we got dicked 0-4 v Wimbledon at home, and Neil Shipperley having a blinder. That day was horrible.

The day Howard Kendall went back to Everton, was a low point for me because I thought we were, going to be very good under his stewardship.

I can cope with relegations as they became part and parcel of being a City fan.

Me too. Sat there at Wembley condemned to another season in the third tier of English football. Looking down at my then 8 year son looking totally deflated. The rags were on the treble, he had already at such a tender age sampled the shit that United fans like to spout.

Then Dickov scored, we had gone as low as we would ever go and the rest is history.

Reading Bluemoon after a poor result.

The Pearce era was pretty dire. Didn't have a seasonticket then but got one at the end of that season, before Shinawatra took over and everything looked uncertain. The feeling for those last few moments of the QPR game....no words can do it justice. I'd say it felt similar to a really sick and twisted pilgrimage - having to endure the walking over hot coals, broken glass etc seemingly with no end in sight - only to be rewarded with the euphoria for the suffering. You can't explain it properly to those who weren't there. Devastation to delirium in 60 seconds - the Rustlers Burger of football, that day was.

being 2-1 down v QPR last season, the last 15 mins before the comeback i was really low. We were playing awful, YaYa off injured and couldnt see a goal let alone 2 in us.
had alot of ups and downs over the year but knowing we were so close and fcked it up i was really low at the time
