She subsequently went on to marry a Brighton fan, they've been ST holders for 20 years - he hates me, last time I saw him was the 5-0 game when they had the pleasure of staying at my place after the game. He had a face like thundered all night. I reminded her about this after the Brighton game the other day, how I'd love to see them go down this year (not going to happen I know).

Was this our cruelest relegation of all? I was too young for 1993 and I would say 2004/05 was horrendous. When Ventola scored it looked like we had done it, only for Higginbotham to ruin things for us. Then when Dougie came on at The Valley and completely changed the game, and AJ scored that penalty, again, it looked like things finally were going to fall into place for us. Leigertwood |

I never want to experience anything like that again. Suffered a horrible bout of depression for about a week after that & vowed never to watch football again.
It was so unlikely, I just couldn't believe it when it actually happened. Oldham had been shit all season! |

Oldham humped 0-3 at home by Southend tonight and staring down the barrel at Division 4
Not celebrating now are you Oldham

Yes, it was Wimbledon's nominal status as the 'home' team that made that defeat so utterly galling. It was pissing down with rain so most of the Palace support was undercover in the AW with The Holmesdale pretty sparsely populated. Wimbledon (relatively speaking) packed out their preferred home end at The Whitehorse and watching them prancing about, going doolally in our own sodding stadium as the goals rattled in was absolutely sickening.
This footage doesn't quite do it justice but it's bad enough. It was certainly this match that brought it home that we were in serious bother and so it proved. At least Altonwood got the extra rental income. I guess that's what matters. |

Now now, Ron charged a fair rent for use of the stadium on match days and he showed remarkable foresight in predicting that someone like Mark Goldberg might rock up 15 years later with some Walter Mittyesque plans, etc etc and so on and so forth |

Can't believe Oldham ended up scoring only 4 less goals than Man U.

Pretty fair call - I'd add the relegation under Dowie after the 3-3 draw at Charlton

Having gone to Maine Road in midweek, I stayed up north with my in laws and actually went to Oldham v Southampton on the saturday. I went in the Southampton end and slowly got sicker and sicker as reality dawned. One of only two times I have cried over football - the other being the 1976 f a cup semi - as I knew we had missed a golden chance to be a real force two years earlier.

We did draw 3-3 against Norwich shortly before that though, and came back from 3-1 down. That was a strange season as at times we looked massively out of our depth, but in the end we should have stayed up. |
