| Never been more down in the dumps than walking away from Old Trafford having lost 8-6 to Saints. I'll never forgive Withers for that blatant knock on....

| The 99 GF was hard to take given that Withers blatantly threw the game (and right in front of me to boot).
Worst for me was the 2002 GF though as I was convinced we had it in the bag and we'd come up with a play to win it. I'd managed to get loads of half interested people to the game too and there was a group of about 20 of us at a GF - that number dwindled over the years.
The challenge cup final at Rah Rah HQ was rubbish all round. I put that down more to the weather and the venue and two teams just cancelling other out.
The loss to Leeds in 04 didn't really bother me as I had a lot of other things going on at home and RL didn't seem too important at the time. My wife had just had her second miscarriage and I nearly didn't bother going to the game but she thought it might cheer me up!

| worst for me was i think in 98 or 99 when we got nilled at home by rhino's and iestyn who in those days could still run at pace as well as throw intercept passes and whinge got a hat trick and most of points..
If any of that is wrong i have tried to blot the memmroy out but some of it stays forever!
pah when iestyn signed for us some thought i hated him because our lass fancied him .... i wish it had been that simple folk s

| Leigh at home in 1994, threw away the Championship due to Dave Watson almost decapitating a Leigh player and getting sent off, went on to lose 24-14, to a team that ended the season with 5 points.
Magic weekend in 2007, cheated.
Crusaders away 2010, inept performance and embarrassing to lose so heavily to that joke team.
All losing finals have all been pretty depressing.

| Huddersfield away (2008?) when the time keepers blew the siren despite the ref signalling the end of the match.
Warrington at home 2009.
Take your pick from this year.
The 2007 play off match with Wigan.
2002 Grand Final.
1997 Challenge Cup final though was the worst for me. The 96 final was pretty bad after leading for so long but it was tempered by the fact it was my first Final and Robbie Paul scored a hat trick. Though 97 the game was (as I remember) pretty rubbish and to lose again to Saints. Still we did alright in the Super league that year so I'd forgotten about until now. I didn't go to the one at Twickers as I was an impoverished Student by then. Thanks for starting this thread Mick

That was bad - the Hull(?) game where we drew something like 32 all was a killer too with Fox missing lads of kicks and Eastwood seemed to kick everything.

Lost 32-30 Fox kicked 1-7, draw would have won us the league, think Cordle scored a few tries that day.

I always think we drew that game, don't know why - must have been mentally scarred as wasn't old enough to be drinking (legally) then.

| The first 78 minutes of Millenium Magic count as one of my great memories, it's just those last two minutes that ruined a great weekend.
My worst game was last season at the Stoop, nearly fell asleep and don't have one abiding memory of the game.

Don't remind me
I said at the time that was the worst Bradford performance ever and still have that view.
Although Salford away in 1998 comes a close second (although Medley's 50m try was a highlight).

| The great many humiliations suffered in the McNamara era are pretty bad but that home game versus Warrington was arguably the worst, you know the one I mean.
The Burnden Park semi was bad but I expected it to be at the time.
I remember some bad days when we had brushes with relegation in 85/86, 88/89 and 91/92 too.

| Easily the 1983 semi at Headingley. I was 13 and Wembley was the only place I wanted to go. Ellery's try seemed to say we'll make it.
Absolutetly gutted. Think I cried in the back of my mates dads Ford Granada estate. Amazingly found a photo of me in the crowd at the semi on the heritage site too.
Someone mentioned Saints at home in 95 in the ice? Really thought about jacking it all in then. (Newlove had just left remember) Another low.
Wide to West.....No Comment
2004 GF....Twickenham 2001....1999 GF....31-30 Wigan play-off...and the whole of Maccas reign.

| Glad i wasnt the only one who cried in 83!! I was 9 and Wembly was the place i wanted to go. I remember waiting for the draw on TV for the semis and being late to footie practice but drawing Fev made it worthwhile, or so i thought!
