Worst game of all time

[stibhan]

Sligo Cork in 2008 was a complete dead rubber IIRC. One of the worst games I've been at.

EDIT: 2007, actually.

Connacht final 1993 Mayo 1-5 Roscommon 0-7,Leitrim 0-6 Roscommon 0-7 (2006 league game) were two of the worst games i've been too

Can't agree about the Leitrim league game R4L.

While the quality of fare on offer was arguably only middlin, the game was another in a long line of epic dogfights against the Laythrumites down the years.

It had a lot going for it ; monsoon-like weather which made this year's Connacht Final breeze and showers look positively glorious.

The big Laytrum crowd giving it socks under the shed all through.

Big Seamie getting attacked for the second game in a row against one of our neighbours.

The boul Marty Sludden dispatching only two Laythrumites to the line when they were clearly on a war footing.

13 man Laytrum's plucky second half showing against the all odds to lead late in the game.

And of course not forgetting The Rossies late comeback culminating in Cregger's wonderful winner.

Aye, a game that could go down in legend yet imho ( especially if i have anything to do with it anyhow  )



' 93 on the other hand ... totally agree. Have managed to wipe most of it from the memory banks at this stage, although Dempsey's goal is still stubbornly hanging in there ...

In hindsight i suppose your right spectator it was played in awful conditions.

In 1906 Kerry drew with Mayo on the scoreline of 0-01 to 0-01.

Yes but the players had a bar on the sideline and half of them were smoking pipes.

2004 and 2006 all-ireland finals

0-8 to 0-6.

We scored 2-9 and 3-4 in those two finals. Granted we were way off the pace but at least we attacked on the rare occasions we had the ball. We've had worse matches than those two.

1991 Down V Armagh 1st round of the Ulster Championship in Newry in a monsoon. Brutal stuff.  We all know what happened after that !!!

Most people had turned off after 20 mins so a lot of these scores were never seen by many. As bad as last weeks game was at least there was an element of drama until the end.

Drama was not what I was calling it at the time.
