Highs and Lows

i m sure we all felt these emotions yesterday and how they can change within a minute but it made me think of the best and worst i ve felt supporting our club . the best has to be at the final whistle against peterboro and the worst when we lost on penalties to huddersfield
 

Highs and Lows

the best the goal against reading on the last game of the season... the worst, the equalizer soon after :cry: :cry: :( :cry: i bloody hate football :sad:
 

Highs and Lows

After 45 years it is hard to recall to many highs !!!! promotions from 3rd and second Div, relegation at Bristol afrter just i season in the first.

With time a number of highs and lows seem to merge but i have fond memories of the games Big John O'Mara plyed and the games with Stevie P and Andy Mac under Bill Dodgin played on basis of scoreing more goals than the opposition!!!!!

Home to Sheffirld with the infamous fight between Dougie Alder and someone " Dougie could not fight his way out of a paper bag"

Yesterday was not the lowest but in reality there have been considerably more lows than highs!!!!!! why couldnt my grandfather have supported Arsenal when a lad??????!!!!!!!!

Cheer up Christom!
Your grandfather had a GOOD sense of judgement!!!
For, as I'm sure you know, in the eight games just prior to the War batween the two Clubs. the Arsenal won 2 and the Bees won FIVE!
That's why he chose the BETTER team!lol

The best was when we scored against Reading. Yesterday's equaliser ranks among the lowest moments ever - I was totally gutted, having never experienced such a thing before. The lowest moment has to be Reading's equaliser, or the final whistle in Cardiff.
 

Highs and Lows

One of the best was the 4 - 0 thrashing of Fulham during the promotion season of 92-3.

There are far too many lows - relegation the following season, although the 1-1 draw with Reading and respective play off defeats against Crewe and Stoke feature strongly as well.
 

Highs and Lows

To many highs to pick one, probably when Bliss scored against Peterborough and thousands of us going crazy.

Losing the penanlty shootout against Huddersfield was the worst as it felt so unfair, having been the best team in that division and not going up automatically.

Incidentally Christom, I asked to go to Arsenal for my 6th birthday
35 years or so ago, my dad took me to Brentford vs Oldham, excuse being we had Gerry Baker on loan from Arsenal and I've been a new road regular ever since. Should have hated the old man but so glad as despite all the bad times the odd highlight always makes me proud to support BFC.

High - Blissett's second goal at Blackburn to make sure of the 6th round in the cup.

Low - the abject surrender at Bristol City in the last match of the 92 -93 season
 

Highs and Lows

The highs? When we used to play footbal on the ground - passing to our own men. Those were the days when we scored goals!
 

Highs and Lows

my high point is when we got promoted back to division 2
and my low point was when reading equalized

Oh yes - the best ever - no question.

The worst for me was the play-off final against Stoke. Totally gutless performances from people who should know better. I'm thinking of stumpy welshmen amongst others.....

The whole day at Blackburn was incredible - not sure it's mt best but definitely top 5.

Agree about play-off against Stoke. Gutless performances, particularly Evo and embarassing numbers. Also, Huddersfield in the Playoffs and the Bristol City 4-1 debacle where my undelying memory is actually anger.

The low point has to be the way we rolled over at Ashton Gate to come straight back down. What a sh*t of a journey back.

Back the highs i just cannot split between winning at Peterboro' the previous season and beating Man City 3-1 at GP a few years before.

Another high could be when we won 2-0 at Cardiff in the cup when we were Div 4 and they were high flyers in Div 2. The mud was atrocious, and john Doc's goal (our 2nd) seemed to take about three and a half hours to trickle across the line. But it did so, and the travelling Bees (were we all behind that goal) went wild. I reckon that's why there is 'history' between the two teams. On form, we should have been lucky to get a throw in.

Oh yes, this was one of the lowest moments in my supporting life. :(
 

Highs and Lows

Lows - Hundres of em

Notts County at Home 92-93 - I knew that was decisive

The whole of 1997-8 the football was so bad

Reading at home 01-02 - I knew that was our last real chance

Crewe / Stoke playoffs - Terrible non-performances (though not as bad as some)

Last Saturday as I fear it may again be crucial

Going down in 1993 - We had the capacity to stay up that season

Peterborough at home this season for sheer ineptitude - Players heading the same ball etc. - Could have been 10

Highs - Most of 1990-92 esp. Fulham, Peterborough; but also some really exciting games generally e.g. Birmingham at home 1990-1

Blackburn away in the cup 1989

QPR away 2001-2 so exciting just knowing we must at least not get beaten
