Some stark contrasts on this thread,some fans lowest points came when their club went bust/almost bust/lost their ground or like us were in the gutter for years on end, yet some cite a cup final defeat or a particularly bad defeat a few years back.
I certainly know which low points im glad i've seen my club come through and would never want to go through again!

As a Saints fan i've been very lucky. The lowest point in my memory was earlier in the season when we got down to 9th in the league, for a couple of weeks.
I know most fans would kill for that to be the low point in their memory

I suppose that just shows how saints fans in particular just wouldn't appreciate anything other than getting to finals year on year.

The whole Long/Gleeson incident is a low point for a Saints fan also how Millward was ushered out by EMc was a low point especially with all the info that came out afterwards.

5 Grand Final losses haven't helped either.

Hardly heartbreak but as a 21 year old I've not seen much of a hard time as a Saints fan.

Completely agree with your point, although sometimes a bad defeat is sometimes the visual representation of going through bad times etc. I'd also suggest leaving Fartown wasn't anywhere near as bad as it could have been, knowing that you had a ground to move in to.

It wasn't bad as in it nearly killed us matt, but it was a low point in our history but came from years of neglect and not having funds to upgrade it etc.
My point being that when your low point is the odd bad defeat every few years then these fans really dont know how lucky they been to have had it easy.
I wouldn't change anything as a fartown fan, our seemingly endless low points just make it a whole easier to appreciate where we are at now,thats why im so proud of what we have achieved the last few years, hell even some of our fans would consider losing to wigan as a low point now,not knowing what hard times are.
By the way its a great thread!

Exactly, when 5 loses on the bounce is your worse run of form in 26 years, you know you've been spoilt.
I don't even know if we've ever been relegated

Relegation in 2004 was low.

For me the entire 1986-87 and 1996 seasons were bad - nearly relegated in each case, and nearly bankrupt in the latter. Individual games include the 92 (?) Regal Trophy loss to Widnes someone else quoted - a disgraceful 'team' display where a very good Widnes took us apart almost at will.

Bizarrely, I'd add winning the Challenge Cup in 1999, because I'd just emigrated to Australia, and my b*starding team goes and finally wins one of the big competitions I'd been hoping for since 1981, and I wasn't there.

Who's Steve Kean?

For me as a Wakey fan its 2010-2011, we went from finishing 5th in 2009, to having an even better squad in 2010. We beat Leeds convincingly on our patch, then it all went wrong. Brough was sold, Tronc went back to Oz, Newton got banned, our squad was decimated.

The following year we went into administration and our players were cherry picked and the season was over before it began.

Along came Andrew Glover and a 3 year license, just need to get that stadium now and a decent team together and I will be happy.

Spoiled for choice on this topic. 1997 and administration was bad, Tim Wilby sniffing around the administrators trying to buy the club with the sole purpose of closing us down.

It was a long, slow road to recovery, so anyone moaning about Sandercock either wasn't around at the time, or has conveiniently forgot how bad those times were.

The 2010 CC Final. I'd seen Leeds lose CC finals before in 2000, 2003 and 2005 and a Grand Final in 2005 too, but the way we got hammered in that one hurt, especially as it was my first time at Wembley. We lost the next year to Wigan too but i was strangely able to walk away from Wembley feeling ok about it because the team had gone down with a fight instead of the wimper it showed against Warrington.

Watching Brad Hepi and Jim Leatham attack a young lad on Hull's marina for having the audacity of bumping into them and listening to Phil Sigsworths explanation of why some players couldn't play but why Paul Sterling did.

And been to young to think I couldn't correct them.

November 1999, hearing that David Lloyd was prepared to close down Hull FC.
