which Albion game did you see......

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

.....but really wish you hadn't?

For me, there's only one:

Brighton 1-5 Stoke Adam Rooney's hat-trick gave Stoke victory and ensured Brighton finished bottom of the Championship table.
Rooney opened the scoring by slotting home from a Dave Brammer corner, then met Josip Skoko's pass for his second.
Mamady Sidibe's drilled shot from a Rooney pass made it 3-0 and Sidibe returned the favour to allow Rooney to score his third goal from eight yards.
Substitute Peter Sweeney added a fifth before Doug Loft grabbed a late consolation for the Seagulls.

Brighton boss Mark McGhee:
"It was a painful defeat and hard to bear, but it was also an irrelevance. Our season ended with the defeat against Sheffield Wednesday.

Waaaaaay too many to mention. In recent memory it has to be either the Blackpool or Donny home games last season.

I somehow think there may be a lot of posts mentioning the Palace game in Oct 2002

Doncaster fans United, the lowlight of a truely shit season

Scum 5 - 0 Us

indeed, however (and I don't mean to be ungrateful for the experiance) but walking out off Wembley as a 15 year old being taunted by Man U fans chanting
"Stevie Foster, What a difference you have made" was quite a low point. Also in 1991 despite outnumbering Notts Co fans by 2:1 I still felt kind of lonely walking down 'The Way'

Sure thing, but that Stoke game had layer upon layer of rubbish things. Like:

- H Block being reduced to ironic cheering of 'Rooney! Rooney! Rooney!' and heckling the lino for failing to spot that a sixth goal was CLEARLY over the line

- Doug Loft coming on for the last twenty minutes, scoring with a daisy-cutter that a child of three would normally be expected to save and being awarded Man Of The Match

- Mark McGhee saying words to the effect that who cares it doesn't matter anyway (he should have been sacked for those comments alone)

- Most gutless display by an Albion side I've ever seen. OK, sometimes you just get overrun by a better side, but that was just pathetic.

Apart from the Palace one, it has to be the 3-0 reverse at home to Blackpool, live on Sky.

The Sponsors that day (Internet Seagulls) say that they had decided on Doug Loft as MotM before he scored as he was the only one who actually looked like he was trying.

Apart from the Palace one, it has to be the 4-0 reverse at home to Blacpool, live on Sky.

Think you'll find it was only 3-0

We had a bit of graveyard humour in H block and were cheering the Stoke goals. It became tragically funny.

Consecutive home games 28/11/73,1/12/73.

The Palace 5-0 is not going to get my vote as it was just absolutely wonderful to be playing them again. The fact that the result was a total humiliation was irrelevant.

The Stoke game has to be the one. Worst experience at an Albion game ever - though seeing the team run out at Luton (I hadn't heard the team news as I got there late) the same season must come close.

Indeed, you are right, just felt like it should of been more.

Now edited.

Going back a bit further, we were certain to go through to the 4th round of the FA Cup in January 1975 as we were only playing lowly Leatherhead. I remember crying my eyes out in the South Stand as we lost 1-0 thanks to that bigheaded mouthy centre forward of theirs Chris Kelly a.k.a. The Leatherhead Lip!!

I wasn't and don't. What was so bad (apart form the score obviously)
