| March 2009, getting stuffed by Harlequins, and the Matt King incident. Whilst it ultimately proved a bit of a turning point, it was grim at the time, given our team and its potential.

| Too many. Mostly every cc leg loss since 1976 none more heartbreaking than 1989 loss to the Pies aka Joe Lydon drop goal!

| Barrow in 2002 was dire. Weather, standard of the game, stadium, journey. Just dire!

| Obviously anything in the last decade and a half of Knowsley Road. The other week at Widnes was up there with the performance and the general atmosphere in the away end after the smoke bomb incident. There was a Widnes away circa 2004 when we took an absolute battering as well. I think I've done ok with away games, not been to too many awful ones aside from these unless I've blocked them from my memory.

| Swinton away at Station Road circa 1992. Beaten by a woeful side, stood by the posts without any cover as the rain came down horizontally.

| workington away early 80s in the lancs cup..it was a midweek game with an early kick off which meant getting time off work to catch the coach at haydock st..we got beat 8-0 and with the long trek back it meant a late night with work the next day...other dour away games were losing at cas in the cup after going 12-0 up and losing ken kelly to injury..the week after we went there in the league and won (pat poasa had a stormer)there are to many dismal away performances over the years..but wouldnt swap any of it....

| Most embarrassing was the Hull kr quarter final, Cullen should have walked after that. Weather wise, I agree with the monkeyman, that was one horrendous day. Also, the play off game v wigan last year was pretty painful as i'm convinced we'd have spanked saints in the final.

I was there too. Something like 12-10 I seem to recall them having a non called Sullivan at stand off and he disgraced us?
We were trailing 10 nil at h/t? but the players seemingly looking as if they would turn it around at ht and had all the time in the world@

Was this the game that Holden picked up a career ending injury? If so I was there as well - remember the rain more than the game!

You are a rum cove, you put the Maine Road semi down as a 'best ever' away game on the other thread

| Too many to mention.
80-0 was absolutely awful. 320 mile round trip to see us get stuffed from the 1st minute. And the knock on to the subsequent games where losing 44-16 seemed half decent.
Semi final of the Premiership in 87 (?) with THAT Joe Lydon drop goal.
Losing away to Hunslet at the Leeds United ground when Boyd was playing for us and he was just not interested - standing 3 yards behind the line.
8-6 loss to Wigan where we effectively lost the Championship. (The Cullen 'knees' incident, when we really played well for the rest of the match)
The numerous last minute losses to Saints.
That's more than 4 for going on with.

Got to disagree there, the atmosphere in our end was fantastic and the performance was fairly good, no disgrace. Some painful defeats have been remedied by our own fans on occasion for me.

Probably this. Wasn't there a floodlight failure, too.
Add to this, my first ever away game, Leigh, Easter Monday 84
I'd pestered my dad for hours for him to take me, (his Wire watching career ended 20 years before this day). We fielded a real Dad's Army team for this one (I think Derek Finnigan played, but none of the Leigh players would tackle him, as he was 72 at the time, and stunk of wee and Werther's Originals). A certain winger played for Leigh that day, and I can honestly say, I've never heard a few thousand people make so much noise, whenever he touched the ball. DEAFENING.
Also, I've never seen us win @ Wakefield.
The 80 niller, obviously
'89 CCSF
87 Prem Final (scandalous reffing)
and a wet midweek match v Leeds in 89. The only time I've left early. My mates had had enough, and one of them was driving so I had no choice.

| That away match at Widnes, 89 I think, when Offiah scored 5. Horrible experience.
