Your worst City game ever attended

Saw Paul Lake swallow his tongue at Maine Rd (against Bradford I think!?) scariest thing I saw as a kid and the quietest Ive ever heard a football ground.
 
Sheffield Utd at home in Division 1 under Keegan I think, they were playing for the 0-0 draw all game, most time wasting i've ever seen. Horrible game.
 
4-0 away to Wigan, Dunne scored a header with his eyes closed and Heskey scored after a few seconds.
 
Two spring to mind.

The 5-0 loss at the swamp in 95 (?) came out to see my uncles car had gone.

OR

1-1 in Feb 99 at Chesterfield. Freezing cold, crowded terrace, crap ground, shit game....good goal from Lee Crooks though!
 
How about 10 years ago or so, Halifax at home on a Friday night. Taxi to the ground from the airport and I see a poster on the way for a Roy Harper concert that evening. I knew then I should have gone to his gig but I did not. Missed the Geo booze up in Amsterdam that weekend as well. Arrived back to hear a few stories but Kinky was class.

What about City 0 Bury 1 in the late 90's when we were on our way to League 2?
Awful, awful night. "We're shit and we know we are, we're shit and we know we are....."

Somewhere in the 60's we played Bury and the quality of football made the consumption of raw sewage a pleasanter experience. It took the legend Leivers to come and rescue a draw with a perfect banana shot. He meant to hit it straight but it went like a banana. Truly awful.. To be honest, there are many contenders from the early sixties.
 
there are a few....3-0 defeat against leciester ellegard in net he was awful and it was freezing
the derby 2 years ago i think when they won to preety much gurantee them the league
losing in the cup to sheffield united
losing to middlesborough at home when they didn't have a single shot and i think it was sun who
scored an own goal
 
bolton, few years ago, absolutely pummeled em, hit the post 5 times & lost to an injury time pen....i was speachless..

Yeah wouldn't mind but he was the bloody physio;-)
 
for me its getting knocked out of the cup after a good run ,i can live with a bad league result coz you've always got next week-so Blackburn away a couple of years ago ,west ham at home the season before both fa quarter finals , i also remember Palace away midweek in january about 15 years ago league cup quarter final lost 4-0. nothing worse than your season being over in january!
 
Charlton at home just after Ball was sacked. Absolutely clueless performance 'highlighted' by a rare Gerry 'utter watse of time and money' Creaney goal who, by some miricle of biblical proportions, scored from a free kick some 30 yards out after Charlton had deservadly gone 1-0 up (they deserved it just for allowing themselves to be seen on the same peice of turf as City, who it pains me to say, were sooooo bad it I started to self-harm!!). Anyway we won 2-1 and the rest of that season and the one that followed is history.

I was also at the Leicester match when Lake swallowed his tongue, which was a tad hairy at the time although the Morley hat-trick once again proved that there is a God and that he does have a sense of humour!

Merry Christmas!
