[Albion] Worst moment of the season?

[A1X]

We've had the Best Moment thread already, so in contrast what was, for you, the worst moment of our season?

Roma away is probably going to feature a lot, but we've seen several lows along the way (arguably all the way up to the weekend) so what were yours?

 

[Mellor 3 Ward 4]

Rome was brilliant - apart from the football.

No way was it the worst moment.

Villa and Luton away maybe....

 

[Thunder Bolt]

Villa away.

That 5 minutes for the 3rd and 4th Roma goals. 2-0 was potentially salvageable for the home-leg, but that 5 minutes just turned our season on it's head. (Although Rome itself was incredible)

Solly breaking down

There was a period of about 10 minutes in the 2nd half of the Roma away game where you could see the players confidence disappear, as we conceded 2 very soft goals. That was the lowest for me. I knew that Europe was over, and the players looked knackered and beaten.

 

[Hometownglory]

Luton away. Abysmal!

Totally agree. Roma was amazing and whilst we lost to see the Albion and our fans at the Stadio Olimpico was amazing. Walking around Rome and seeing Albion shirts was unreal, the queue for the bus to the stadium was great fun in the sun in the park.

March's injury was probably the worst but that second goal at Luton was such a shambles it felt like our defence was playing some sort of practical joke on me personally

Tear gassed in Athens.

 

[Is it PotG?]

Losing to Man Ure after turning them over constantly in recent games.

Citeh away and Solly wasn't a great moment

Going 2-0 down in Marseille was a low, but thankfully we dug deep and the rest is history

Luton was embarrassing but in a funny way I was pleased for them

Palace sacking Roy Hodgson

Leaving Rome. Stonking hangover and the knowledge we were out of Europe. Sat at the airport waiting for a Jet2 to Edinburgh that connected with a flight from there to Gatwick to further realise that a) my train to Milan for my original flight was running after all and b) the Jet2 was delayed 2 hours putting the connection at risk. And then they further delayed it because it was an inaugural flight on the route and they had to take marketing photos before boarding . All of that with a bit of survivor guilt as our original Wednesday night plans had been to meet Jack somewhere.

Finally managed to get on the 5pm Easyjet from Edinburgh, got in, said hello to wife, daughter and dog and sat there depressed as f*** knowing the season was over.

Palace sacking Roy Hodgson

Good point!

Don't know if you can call 9 days a moment, but 28th Feb - 7th March:

Wolves 0-1
Fulham 0-3
Rome 0-4

A season-ending 3 games with some curious selections, tactics and shambolic defending.

This depressing thread.

 

[Albion Robster]

Luton (A).
Felt like we playing in League 1 under Martin Hinshelwood. Dreadful performance. RDZ and the players rocked up thinking it would be a walk in the park.
