Ever cried with disappointment...

[spacemonkey]

For me...

FA Cup final last year.

I tried not to but as I was leaving the stadium the disappointment was just too much.
Well wisher who'd come with us was amused but I don't blame him.

I got a bit choaked up as the whistle went. But no tears rolled down my face.

The only proper time was Wales vs Romania in 1993. Then again when I found out that poor fella died.

It was an epiphany to me, a realisation of how important football was to boys.

That's awesome. Never forget.

arsenal 0 ipshit 1, 1977 cup final. absolute floods

liverpool 0 arsenal 2, 1989 league champions

plus various other events, normally in the face of some humungous individual effort.

It was 1978!!!!!! Osbourne one nil!!!!!

As for me it was when we lost in the playoffs against bolton in 1999, cried floods. And after england lost to Germany in 1996, I was behind the goal where southgate missed and you could feel the balloon burst.

Yes - going out to the Argies in 1998.

Only sporting related events that I can remember reducing me to tears are:-

Sacking of John Lyall
Death of Bobby Moore
The day I played against a full strength Glamorgan XI that went on to win the sunday league that year(1993)

Coventry v Tottenham Hotspur 1987 FA Cup Final. I was very young and very gutted

 

[huxley71]

England vs Argentina when Becks got sent off and we lost, despite the heroics of gazza, sheri, shearer et al. Was in the Prince Charles drinking some alcopop piss, Red I think...

So pissed that you thought you could see Gazza playing in a tournament that he wasn't selected for?

Yes, whenever Dravinian posts

I shed a few tears when Villa got relegated in 1988. From European champions to bottom of the league in six seasons .... everyone just needs to remind themselves of that in order to remember what a twat Doug Ellis was and is.

I've sort of acquired a kind of icy numbness whenever Villa or England have fucked up since that time. In particular, I predicted the penalty misses by both Southgate and Vassell. The closest I can think of ever coming to crying is when we outplayed Liverpool in an FA Cup semi-final one year and still managed to lose 3-0.
