Rose was sin binned, which was the first sinbinning at Wembley. Terry Hudson was sinbinned later in the game for a foul on David Topliss (as mentioned he had previously been involved in the incident that led to Kevin Harkin being carried off).

Beat me to it...Hudson kicked Harkin in the head,anyway,worst days for me was the Walsh/Lloyd and various idiots as C.E.O era and nearly going out of buisness.They was the worst days ever but we was saved by Barry Lilleys astute thinking.

1999 was a nightmare season. We only won five games all year and at one point had played eighteen and won just one. I particularly remember us chucking away a home game to Sheffield on the Easter Monday and being hammered at home by Cas and London.

I was gutted in 83, genuinely thought we would do the business at Wembley. Just an awful game, so disappointing.

You did go out of business and were taken over by Gateshead Thunder !!!!!!!!!

Off you go. It must be past your bedtime.

83 was bad. David Hobbs scored right in front of us. I was probably too young to fully appreciate what an opportunity we'd missed though.
The Lloyd era was worse though. The bad feeling just seemed to accumulate. At least when you lose a CC final you know you're good enough to get there, but in the late 90s things were just desperate week in week out

Paul Eastwood miss a pen at goal - hull won would had put a end to wigans every year (day trip to Wembley ) at the time

at least we paid off our debt unlike others (penny in the pound)

The fact that not 1 poster mentions 1980 as one of the worst days as a fan speaks volumes.
Maybe it's just too painful to even mention it.

Plenty of bad days re. results on the pitch.

Most "Magic" weekend results, most Wembley results and, rather sadly, most recent Derby results.

However, for dark days, they don't get much darker for me than March 26th, 2000 at the McAlpine Stadium.
