As low as it got for you?

[YorkshireRed]

I’m not talking about the obvious low moments we all share as Liverpool fans, this is more a question aimed at memories of performances on the pitch.

 

Maybe not cup final defeats or those days where Liverpool have lost to their biggest rivals, I know those ones come with a bit extra pain. 

 

Yesterday was poor, but nowhere near as bad as it has been. 
 

Not much of a match goer these days but have experienced a few lows, as well as oh so many highs.

 

A couple of the top of my head to make you shiver.

 

Liverpool 0, Wolves 1(December 29, 2010).

 

The darkest of times under Roy Hodgson. It was just the defeat, even the ineptitude of the performance. I’ve probably seen worse than that night. It was just the whole atmosphere of the place, and the apathy from the stands towards what we were being served up.

 

There was also a home defeat to Charlton under Gerald Houllier.  Again, I’m sure I’ve seen much worse but this one sticks in the memory as low point. We looked clueless, uninspired and lacking anything like the required quality.

Stoke 6 Liverpool 1 and 95% of all games against the mancs. 

[Halcyon Days]

It’s always going to be Hicks and Gillett for me. I know it’s away from the pitch but I really thought we were done as a top sporting institution. Still hard to believe it really happened when you think back.

[Harry Squatter]

Losing at home to Charlton under Houllier, losing to Blackpool under the Owl. 

 

Some of the European performances under Roy Evan's were pathetic too. Strasbourg, PSG and Brondby at home. Made worse by the Mancs winning everything.

Our lowest league finish since we came back to the top flight in 1962 is 8th.

 

Ask me at end of season, because if we finish lower than that, then yeah this will be the worst season i've witnessed for on field performances as a Liverpool supporter.

Negged for referring to me as ‘new people’.

Losing to Leicester in 1999 via an Ian Marshall last minute winner at the same time United were turning Juventus over in a CL Semi isn't something  I would like to re-live too often.

Remember that night well. Sickening at how far we'd fallen.

[Lee909]

Not even close to the shite served up under Souness, later part of Ged post being sick or Woy. 

[Jairzinho]

I don't think anything beats Hodgson in the last couple of decades. We were comically shit, incredibly boring, acting like a club that had never won anything, and all with a snide fucking bellend in charge. He had more loyalty to Ferguson than he did to the club's young players. He was an embarrassment.

 

The last few weeks of his time at the club were the only time I've wanted us to lose games purely to speed up his fucking off. He was an astonishingly shit cunt.

[diamondjoe]

2 nil down to Swansea at home, back to 2-2 and they grab a winner late on. Took me a few months to get over that one. Was even thinking about it this morning.

[Herp McDerp]

Has to be the game against Chelsea. You know the one. I think it was at that point that I gave up on us ever winning the league in my lifetime, it was just the cruelest way for it to happen and I was convinced we were cursed.

[The Golden Eel]

Some good (well, bad) ones mentioned.

 

That FA Cup semi v Villa under Rodgers was a shocker too.

That was bad too. Forgot about that. 

[magicrat]

Losing to Blackpool at home wasn't a fun day 

[YorkshireRed]

Losing at home in the FA Cup to Bolton under Souness. That was a replay, the first match at their old ground was bad enough. I think it ended 2-2, it definitely was blinking freezing. 

[dockers_strike]

We've finished 8th a couple of times since promotion. This isnt the worst season yet and, I personally doubt it will be. If people think it is, they must have been asleep during some of Souey's reign as manager. That truely was the low point.

[Halcyon Days]

Some of the worst away days ever during the Souness era, everyone seemed to beat us. 

[Bjornebye]

Losng to utd in the cup final 96 will always be the saddest I've felt about footty but we had a side then.

 

Going from having Torres, Mascherano and Alonso to The Owl, Konchesky, Charlie Pastie and Koncheskys maa kicking off at Liverpool fans is as low as it can ever get. And I've watched Tom Hanks in Philadelphia. 

 

 

Also, the Newcastle game at half time when the sprinkler turned on and soaked that fella in the main stand and he stood there with his arms out as if to say "what the fuck is going on" I think all true Liverpool fans felt that.

It was grim. I remember we flew out on holiday so missed the last home game of the season. Was fully expecting Souey to be sacked by the time we got back but Moores chickened out and kept him on. The following season he eventually fell on his sword and put us out of our misery. Shocking football, it truely was.

Drowning Man starting match threads has to be up there.

Yeah, we, me and my uncle, were waiting until the day before for tickets and in the end we didn't get them, so my uncle tried to make it nice for fourteen year old me by doing a BBQ and getting permission from my mother to let my have a few drinks whilst we watched it.

 

He got me Hooch, the horrible fucking lemon shite, for god only knows what reason. He also fucked the sausages up and under cooked them, normally he was a dab hand but I get the impression he'd been drinking since his mate let him down with the tickets.

 

I don't remember the game, threw up in his neighbours garden after falling over a wall and splitting my head open then had the shits the following day due to the fucking sausages.

 

This is still not as painful as the Poulsen and Konchesky signings.

Travelling down to the Dell in the boot of an Austin Allegro estate for 3 hours was a joy in the early 90s. Got beat 1-0 think it was Le Tissier with the winner. I’m sure a teenage Shearer played that day too, why didn’t we buy him? It was obvious even then what a player he’s go on to be.
