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.

Nope, that was terrible but aside from the local rivalry it was at least against a club who had been Champions the year before.

In 1983 we were Cup holders, had won the league just weeks before and won fifteen of the previous sixteen games. It seemed inconceivable that we'd lose to Featherstone who finished 12th in the sixteen league.

The one that got away

Also that it's not within living memory for half of supporters. I started going in 1990, so being a full decade beforehand it's not relevant for me, for example.

The 21-22 v Wigan was gutting as we'd been so good in the first half, unexpectedly dominant. Worst times for me were the pre merger days when it looked like there'd be no FC to follow.

Because losing to a decent rovers side was nowhere near as bad as losing to fev. It was the equivalent of me beating mo farah in a 10k race

I think it just shows that how we see each other and how we see ourselves is often at variance. Hull trolls are generally more tedious than anything else, because they miss our point of view - I assume the reverse is true.
A troll with genuine empathy - that would be sharp edged. Probably an oxymoron though.

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.

err, I did mention it!!?

Last Good Friday result against KR.

Worst performance I have seen in my time as a fan, and THE only time I have left before the end since my first game in 1988.

You can't have seen many games in the last 25 years if the last derby was the worst you've seen

I would have thought the 42-6 one was worse than the last derby.

I've only been going since 04 and although it wasn't pleasant it's hardly the worst ever.

The worst two for me were 42-6 and the one in 08 I think, when it was hailing towards that south stand and they scored a late drop goal to win 11-10.

Knee jerk comment.

If you have been going since 1988, you must have seen much worse dross in the 1994-6 era and the 1999 season

Derby in 2007, we were in good form and heading for the top4, sold out crowd (our biggest ever in the modern era) in the ground...and then we played like that!

Wakefield 2011, freezing cold night, very drab defeat...but what made this worst was the realisation that we had a rubbish team yet again, and it seemed at that point that we were stuck with Agar forever.

Leeds away in 2011, the game where Radford going within a metre of the Leeds line was our only attacking move all evening! Adam Pearson later stated this game was what convinced him to axe Agar.

We've had worse teams and games than the above, but I've nominated these 3 as our team & resources at the time meant we should have done a lot lot better.

Possibly next Friday night.....

The Wigan game at the Boulevard in the Challenge cup in 94 for me too. We conceded right on the ht hooter in the threepenny corner and Botica pegged it from the touchline. We lost by a point and you knew when Botica kicked it, that was gonna be the difference! That was when no one could touch Wigan. I live in Lancashire and no one spoke in our car for the 2 hour journey home. Was absolutely gutted for days.

The difference between that game and say the Fev final is that we put such a shift in, it didn't seem right.

This game was the worst I felt after, just because of the huge lead and was it 6 years Wigan unbeaten in the cup at that point? Utterly gutted after.

In recent memory a Wakefield at home game made me pretty angry and Cas away when Thorman was dragged off. Both abject performances that stand out.

wigan cup final for me,yes it was great final but was gutted,we had a good team that day and another 5 min we would have won, following hull always a rollercoaster ride,but that day in 2005 and the cup final replay at elland rd make it worthwhile

getting stuffed by a decent london bronco's team quite afew years back at boulevard sticks in my mind...we was cack...
