Albion Games where you wanted the players to refund you

[Taybha]

for miles involved and money spent to watch a hapless gutless i dont give a f*** display it would have to be blackpool on a tuesday night , for sheer oh ffs swindon at home last season seems to tug at the im never going again memory

 

[Couldn't Be Hyypia]

losing 1-0 to Walsall with 9 men is one that sticks out

Indeed - deeply depressing game.

 

[Andrew]

Man City?

We should have given THEM more money when we won that

 

[Publius Ovidius]

every season at Gillingham.

 

[SirDouglasLoft]

Crewe at home last season

all the rest have been said.

Agreed about the heavy defeats at Palace and Brentford (twice) - also once at Barnet. These are the only occasions when I've left a ground very early (or, in the case of Palace, tried to leave and was stopped from doing so by the OB).

But the one that takes the biscuit was in the late 80s, a boxing day match at Port Vale (or was it Notts County - midlands teams in b&w get me confused). Albion were rubbish and I just accepted that it happens. Decades later, Garry Nelson's autobiography revealed that the players were rat-arsed the night before and, frankly, didn't give a sh*t.

I was gutted, and I want my money back now, delivered by all the players from way back then.

That's the one I was going to mention. It was Notts County and it was NY Day as the players had been pissing it up for new year. My missus and I drove up from London despite stonking hangovers. We were abject and later found out the truth. Nelson et al, cough up!

Another two not mentioned - Home & Away to Sudbury Town in 1996.

Losing 1-5 to Millwall in the Auto Windscreen Shield at Priestfield. Even if it was just the A.W.S - it was a total inept performance! What a waste of money, including the train fare.

Wigan players are refunding fans who went to see their 9-1 defeat at Spurs. Which Albion games have you been to where you felt the players owed you a refund........

The 1-5 home defeat by Stoke at the end of the 2005/6 season would be top of my list. A result that Mark McGhee dismissed as a 'total irrelevance'

Most of the home games over the last 2 seasons - dismal

Yup, that's the one that should have had McGhee tarred and feathered and run out of town. We were all just taking the piss out of the players by the end. Rooney! Rooney!

Norwich ... and before anyone says posted at 11.09 how did that happen, it's easy I'm at home and didn't see the game and am merely "havin' a laugh"! That said if I'd travelled all the way to Norwich I'd be a tad pissed off!

MK Dons away last year was pretty dire, along with Walsall at home.

The support and singing by our fans at MK Dons last year made it worth going, IMO, despite the 2-0 defeat.

Leyton away last season for me. Our loan keeper was a furkin muppet who was trained by Stevie Wonder. We gifted them an un-necessary penalty which McGleish (is a wanker, is a wanker) then put away. Made me mad it did.
