What has been your lowest point supporting Everton?

[Verbal Kint]

I think Saha scored way too soon, Moysie crapped himself and we immediately went on the back foot.

I hadn't fantastic time for Tim Howard before this game and I had zero regard for him after.

Ridiculous letting that Lampard shot in

Probably already mentioned but the 1980 Semi Final replay against West Ham was a tough one to take.
Watched it on Sportsnight without knowing the score. Didn't understand how we could get taken apart by a second division side (Devonshire had a blinder), then the winning goal somehow crawling into the bottom corner at a funereal pace. In those days the cup was a bigger deal...

Allardyce becoming our manager is right up there too.

1977 Semi Final, Bryan Hamilton being denied the winner by Clive Thomas - so proud of the boys that day.

Real lowest point was the 86 cup final. Felt sick. At my uncles in Hackney that weekend he was a red.

Selling Rooney was a big low for me. Stopped renewing my season ticket the season after that.

Last season under Benitez was pretty grim as well though. I just stopped caring and actually thought it would have been better off if we got relegated as I was sick of the same old same old.

I was at that game as a young innocent 9 year old, totallly unaware of the years of Everton misery ahead..

I was struggling around the Rooney season, was honestly about to give up my Season Ticket, but he made me renew, then we sold him, took me many years to pay off the debt for that ticket, THANKS WAYNE.

Yes. Next question

 

[Cork Evertonian]

He did, but it was Flo who was stalling on the deal too and the fee would be increased- he was due on a 'free' a few months later, so not great foresight there. Good player Flo, but what was the plan? Him and Ferguson up front? Urgh, no thanks.

Still though Big Joe remains the last Everton manager to win something. We had one full season under Big Joe and it was a very good one to be fair.

Me personally, the 2009 fa cup final against Chelsea. Thing we would of won that if wasn’t for key injuries.

And scored tok early for me, screwed the game plan from that point.

It was a good one and he deserves great credit for that and the turnaround in 1995- and he gets that credit. But the reason he didn’t have another full season was because he bailed when our results were in freefall during that season…almost “Rafael-esque“ in terms of points gained during his last 3 months in fact. His subsequent career in management (and indeed before that with Oldham) proved he was at his best trying to keep teams in the top tier or get them promoted.

Champions league qualifier when we lost to Villarreal and having Collina rule out Dunc’s header. First time I realised that the game isn’t played straight, nearly made me stop following the game. For me, that was the day the dream died.

Losing at Oxford in the last minute to give the RS the championship on a plate in 1985/6.

 

[Acrobat]

86 Cup Final. The season ended on such a low. We were a much better team than them too.

 

[Legend Barry Horne]

Everyday supporting this club has been a low point

But the fat kopite brought a whole new level

Why bother with it then?
