matches you would rather forget about.

[theowlsman]

Evening match at home to Everton in the 80s. 4-0 down at half time and the stewards wouldn't let us out of the ground.

Some away fixture at Watford in the late 70s, again 4-0 down by half time

i remember that game at watford, i think it was the 81/82 season when we just missed out on promotion, barnes and blissett ripped us apart. we never looked like scoring and i remember travelling down to the match with a watford fan.

We smashed up the asbestos on the back of their stand, and parts of the roof, and had coins chucked at us througout the game.

We also smashed up their little lottery ticket hut.

3-0 defeat by forest April 1990 our relegation , pig promotion ,we only needed a draw then radio Sheffield told us we were saved by derby to extend the misery

[Guest mkowl]

I remember a later game in the 2003/04 season, a 1-0 home defeat to Bournemouth that I think was Turner's last game in charge. I proclaimed that was the last game for me. but the change of manager changed my mind

Too many Tuesday night matches that I care to remember in the last decade to be honest.

How can the OP post a thread about "matches you would rather forget about" so that people recall something they hoped they would forget about, but are now prompted to remember ?

the one against birmingham where wade small ruined my f*cking week.

[Anlaby Owl]

VS Hull city a few years ago at Hilsborough. Nick Barmby turned us over meaning I'd get loads of greif the next day. To cap it all some tVVat vandalised my car (a taxi) because it had east riding plates.

[Ash-Williams]

i see a patern here, everytime we have a good season-ish we let in at least five goals in a game at least once that season

[Guest tha_knows]

I agree Oli it seems to be a tradition, hopefully a tradition that's gunna stop now, I think for the first time in ages we have a good manager, a good squad (obviously 1 or 2 adjustments) and a chairman who has ambition, I'm not saying where gunna walk the league but its been a while since I could say no matter the opposition, I feel confident we will put up a gud fight and even get a result,here's to the future fellow Owls!

[overlandandsea]

Was it also under irvine when we drew 2-2 with mk dons at hillsborough?

Coke scored a pen that had to be retaken, only for him to flippingmiss it!

[EccoEcho]

After a few tight fa cup games against Everton (about 87 ?) we played them at Hillsboro in the third? replay ?............5-0 down at half time, half the ground emptied out...............nightmare

[bradowl]

The 3-1 defeat at home to a Brentford side full of reserves because they was playing at Wembley a few days later.

From years ago when losing 3-1 at home to Rotherham on bonfire night and having to go to school next day and face gloating kids who never even went to game.

[EatMyGOAAAALLLLL]

Exeter 5 - 1 Wednesday

Leyton Orient 4 - 0 Wednesday

Within the space of a month we got demolished on the road to these two. The Exeter one was the worst for me, I went as a spur of the moment thing on my own, set off at 7am on the coach, arrived at 2:45 and went straight into the ground, it was FREEZING. Got hammered obviously, then stuck in the snow on the way home. Brilliant day!

[LiamK2292]

Rotherham at home in the League Cup. (Think it was 08/09)

Esajas scored, we were stil celebrating, then they scored 5 seconds away.

Esajas scores a 117th minute free kick thinking we'd won it, conceded in the final minute.

Lost 5-4 on penalties. Guess who missed? Esajas.

Another awful night added to the ones already mentioned above.

The 7-2 defeat to Forest was a nightmare. Just showed how far we had fallen behind as the great team from 1990-93 was dismantled.

the 0-5 HT against Everton in the FA cup was agony. Having to endure the 2nd half on the kop was probably one of the most miserable.

[lesbarbeux]

We've seen some utter crap over the years but the one that sticks in the mind for me was losing at home to Man City when they tried to give us the game and we still blew it, sending us down to the second tier, Div 2 as it was then.

Seemed to get used to it or at least become more resigned to the dross after that!

[JoshTheOwl]

3-1 away at Colchester. Now that wasn't a great trip, players not performing, players arguing as well as fans. And getting locked in the away end. What an awful trip that was, still.. One ground that I ticked off the list.

[kbowl]

That Darlington game was horrendous! Always disliked going away to North East because we hardly ever got a result. First ever away game was Boro' away in 73/74. Lost 8-0 and got beat up after the match!

OMG I was there too, just passed my driving test and took my new gf ( now my wife ) proud as punch I was, new car, come and see my team, what a kin shambles, left at 6-0, never been so embarrassed in me life.
