We've had our fair share.

Reply with one game which you'll never forget for all the wrong reasons.

I'll start;

Middlesbrough sealed a place in the FA Cup semi-final and piled the pressure on Everton boss Walter Smith as they cruised to a 3-0 victory at The Riverside Stadium.

Everton left David Ginola out of their squad and gave Paul Gascoigne one last shot at FA Cup glory - but it was not be as Middlesbrough strolled to victory.

Although, this was one of the biggest defining moments in our recent history. David Moyes took charge 4 days later.

I'll go for the obvious one!

"Everton cursed a controversial late decision by referee Pieluigi Collina as they crashed out of the Champions League 4-2 on aggregate to Villarreal."

I was so unbelievably gutted

the '77 League Cup Final defeat against Villa, i remember crying like a baby ( and i was 15! ), i was watching it with my father and brother on the TV, i'm sure we came back twice from a goal down only for some bearded [Poor language removed] to break my heart right at the end. It hurt lads i'm telling you.

When we lost to Aston Villa 6-2 on bonfire night in the late 80s. It was the moment I started to realise that we were going to be [Poor language removed].

It proved so.

The 1989 cup final. I still get a funny feeling in my stomach now.

I'd have to go with Welton's.

Although the match two weekends ago could easily be up there for me.

Big Nev staging his sit down protest when 3-0 down at Leeds back in 1990.

Losing to Shrewsbury in the cup despite having Rooney et al in the team.

The recent derby

Losing 4-1 to Arsenal in the first game of the post-Rooney season and thinking "[Poor language removed], we're in for a long season" as we were soundly thrashed that day. Oh how joyous it was to be wrong.
