As an elderly OAP I obviously can recall plenty with the majority away. The biggest disgrace was  being unable to beat Harlow UCL level in 2 games  1-1 at home  0-1 away . The biggest home defeat I can remember was  Garry Parkers one game in charge 0-6 both in the cup. However  bad defeats do not always mean bad performances examples being  a5-2 defeat  in the league winning season and a 6-2 defeat to Man U under Martin Oneil.Many years ago Leicester lost  5-0  to Man U and came off to a standing ovation their  goalie was man of the match. Prior to the awful performances againstNewcastle and West Ham  my worst league performances  were 0-5 WBA  Bloomfield  0-5 Bolton Taylor  0-3 Millwall Sven  1-6 Spurs  0-2 Sheff U. My worst would be Bolton missiles thrown on to the pitch  person attacking Ian Walker.However  none involved a team fighting relegation  and  the gifting of points to West Ham arguablly the worst side currentlyin the league was indefensible. In  conclusion  the fact  that the worst side fielded in the top flight since Mclintock will finish at least  9th and a Man U  side beaten by all promoted sides  and Bristol City will almost  certainly be second and possible cup  winners suggest the Premier league is over rated and  the gulf between it and the championship  is nowhere as big as suggested by pundits look how Hull and Sunderland have done.

Allen got the boot after a 4-1 win over Charlton, I think. The fact is there have been many atrocious performances over the years but the home games from February this year have not been brilliant and must appear in the list of worst home games

Bolton in 2001.

 

From a decent position in the table, getting to an FA Cup Quarter Final losing 2-1, a season where we got worse and worse and then losing 5-0 later on that year to a mid to bottom table team.

 

But enough about 2018, I'd still stick with Bolton.

Not the performance as such, but probably the most absolutely gutted and heartbreaking was Atletico Madrid at home in the second leg in 97. It was so unjust, and it's making me angry just thinking about it now. Actual worst performance by the team, I've probably seen too many to narrow it down to just the one!

Leicester 1 Norwich 4

Closest I have ever coming to leaving before the end.

Couldn't do it even then.

There have been some pretty dire times.

Can't wait for dementia to set in. Will watch the dvd of the Premier League winning season every day, and every day will be like the first time !

In terms of bad runs this is the worst in a long time. We've been a disgrace for about 6 home games in a row.

 

0-3 v Millwall and 0-5 v Aston Villa were two obvious picks.

5-0 home defeat to Villa in '04 I think. Second half was abysmal 

I was 10 at the time and my best mate was a cvnt of a Villa fan. I honestly don't think I'll ever witness a worse outcome. The pitch invader was also a distant relative of mine.

Obviously not the very worst in terms of result but 0-0 at home to Hull in the great escape was awful considering they had 10 men. Only time I ever doubted Pearson.

It isnt the team its the tactics the manager is using, yesterday was the most tedious boring game ive ever seen due to the ridiculous style of play Puel employs, it could have been any team out there, the result would have been exactly the same.

0-1 Shrewsbury 1987,  It was the most boring game ever ,the only highlight of the game for the wrong reasons was Steve Walsh breaking David Geddis jaw after he scored in the last few minutes, got a massive ban after that.

Sheffield Wednesday 1-3 which really confirmed our relegation 

Disgusting performance. Holloway looked clueless that day.

Was that the opening game of the season? Think i went to that as a young whipper snapper!?
