I feel guilty for starting this now and overtaking the Top 5 games attended thread... What does this say about us a fanbase that we've more to say about defeats... whether they are memorable or painful (or enjoyable?)

I think football fans have a masochistic streak, generally.

Oh-hum. There might be some metaphysical way of redeeming face, but I shall face my error with humility. Grrr.

Going to twist this a bit. 2017 Atletico Madrid at home. 1-1. It wasn't a defeat on the night, but the loss on aggregate just felt like that natural end of an era.

 

The standing ovation at the end from everyone. It was such a weird feeling; genuinely felt like the period April 2015-then had come to a close. It felt at the time like it'd never get any better than that. Miraculous escape, title win, UCL QF.

 

There we were and we all realised it. The players made every effort on the night, an incredible atmosphere and occasion. It was an amazing few minutes after the whistle.
