The most embarassing result in our history - whats yours.....

[WATFORD O]

4-1 to Dage....nah, I cant even bring myself to say it. The most disgraceful result in our history. Words cannot express the shame. This is as low as it gets....

Whats the result that made you feel this bad?

Could be 8-2 at home to Bristol Rovers but I would go for the 0-4 home defeat by Walton and Hersham in the first round of the FA Cup. Both results were under the stewardship of one Brian Clough.

Crystal palace 5 brighton 0

Beat me to it bhaexpress! Also the last FA Cup tie at the Goldstone when we lost against some pub team from Suffolk. Sudbury wasn't it? They were (are?) so far down the non-league pyramid that I can't remember their name

 

[WATFORD O]

before this result the 6-1 to Carlisle was up there or maybe even losing to Margate and Enfield in the cup......

 

[bhaexpress]

Margate, Enfield ? Bad results indeed but we've had reverses against non league opposition too, Leatherhead for example. I guess you can take heart from the fact that our bad losses were in the FA Cup which is far more high profile than the LDV. We didn't play very well against Forest Green on Monday and it's easy to understand why. It's not easy to motivate players for a game in what is frankly a non event competition. I would suggest that three points for Orient are very much on the cards tomorrow.

You see? you see? You two CAN be nice to each other!

 

[WATFORD O]

crikey! He must have had something in his morning coffee!

 

[BrightonBird]

I don't find Watford O bad - just an Orient supporter

The one that hurt was Palace's thrashing at theirs

You see? you see? You two CAN be nice to each other!

i noticed that too !

and while you are there Brovian (and with all due respect to the o/t nature of this post within this thread) Brovian, were you with Atilla on the St Pauli concert at Markthalle in about 93 or 94 ? It was a good night, i had along chat with Atilla and an even longer chat with the girl lead singer of one of the bands....

 

[tinx]

Yeah as much as loosing to non league opposition is embarassing the palace game last year still sits badly and it wll for as long as it take to avenge the result, if only graham barretts shot hadn't hit the post at withdean that would have eased the pain beating them at ours.

Can't wait until next seaosn when get to go to selhurst again and put write a most horrible wrong.

Thing is, when Watford posts a sensible or relevent message like that he deserves a proper response. When he has a go at somebody like Scott (as he did earlier this week) for doing what he himself has done so often and usually more unpleasantly then yes, I'll have a dig.

To Watford's credit we all extracted the urine and he took it on the chin, held his hands up and took the flak, fair play to him there.

 

[WATFORD O]

BHA, I always post good threads and I have always taken it on the chin............

 

[CHAPPERS]

Anytime that Orient have ever beaten us is always pretty embarrasing.

 

[Italiaseagull]

Sudbury, Kingstonian, both highly embaressing cup defeats.

 

[Braders]

kidderminster done at the withdean wasn't nice!

 

[glosterseagull]

BHA, I always post good threads and I have always taken it on the chin............

I dont! and i'm very sensative

So far down the pyramid that that club in fact no longer exists which makes it worse.

Walton and Hersham for sure

 

[Hiney]

For us old bastards it has to be November 28th 1973, Albion 0 Walteon & Hersham 4, followed 3 days later by Albion 2 Bristol Rovers 8.

Great time to be an Albion fan!!!!!!

Yep - it was Sudbury - cute little ground with white picket fencing to keep the crowds off the pitch - If i remember rightly - the Brighton fans were put in the only stand!!!!
