1.Manure semi 1999 Bergkamp"s last minute penalty miss.We would have gone on to will the double and their treble dream would have been shattered.And that Fcuking Giggs goal would never had happened. Oh Dennis

2.Chelski CL QF. The semi final line up was the weakest in CL history maybe our best chance ever to win the big one

3.Spuds semi in 1991.Cost us another double

Barcelona Champions league I literally felt like someone had died and couldn't shake that feeling for nearly a week. But the only time I've had real tears over a game was CWC 95 Vs Zaragosa, speaking on the phone to my old man who was in Paris at the match. Tuseday's match had hardly any impact on me, I was more upset when the San Diego Chargers beat the Indianapolis Colts 2 weeks ago.

I'm so glad that I'm not the only one to say this - in some ways it's cathartic.

The most disappointed/depressed/downright fucking suicidal I've been after a game has to be the 1999 FA Cup against Man Utd. Lost 2-1 with DB10 (of all people) missing a penalty in the last minute of normal time. And TA (it just gets worse and worse) missing what I'm sure was a header to an open goal in more or less the last minute of extra time.

And it didn't help that they went on to win the treble either!!

I watched extended highlights of that game on ESPN last week - the first time I have seen any footage since the original. I know this sounds pathetic (which is probably because it is) but I just felt like crying afterwards!

Horrible, absolutely horrible.

By the way...a couple more for consideration -

Arsenal 1 Chelsea 2 (CL Semi). Just when you thought we couldn't lose.

Arsenal 1 Bolton 3 (FA Cup, circa 1994). For me, the lowest point of a very low season (we could write a thread on its own for that season). Bolton were in a league below us, not that you would have thought it.
