Poet of the Macabre Posted April 12, 2018 Posted April 12, 2018 Saw a couple of Morton posters talking about how the Dumbarton game on Tuesday could have been a "shame game" if they'd lost. Thought it would be a good topic for folk on here to discuss. What are some of your club's most embarrassing results/performances? Points for funny back stories and lesser known games.
smpar Posted April 12, 2018 Posted April 12, 2018 Playing an already-relegated Airdrie on the final day, we only needed to avoid defeat to avoid the prospect of relegation. We lost and were relegated.
Sarto Mutiny Posted April 12, 2018 Posted April 12, 2018 Next Tuesday, when we become the first team this season to lose a league game to Brechin City.

We lost and were relegated. Made worse by the announcer fanny saying at the start of the second half “it’s the final 45 minutes of the season”. Saw us lose to Burntisland Shipyard too.
IainMorton Posted April 12, 2018 Posted April 12, 2018 Losing 2-1 to Spartans in the Scottish Cup a few years back.
TheScarf Posted April 12, 2018 Posted April 12, 2018 Touch wood, in our 24 year existence we haven’t had many banana skins that we’ve lost. The only one I can think of was losing 2-1 to Queens Park at home in the cup at the start of 2003/2004. The year we got promoted to the SPL.
alsy Posted April 12, 2018 Posted April 12, 2018 Losing 1-0 to Alloa, a team two divisions below us, in the League Cup last season without laying a glove on them for the entire match was pretty bad. That was when it really started to become clear that Foran didn't have a clue what he was doing, that in signing Scott Boden he'd given a three year contract to a complete imposter, that Billy King was pretty shite too, and that we were in all probability going to drop out of the top flight like a stone.
Bairnardo Posted April 12, 2018 Posted April 12, 2018 f**k sake had a post typed out and somehow made it disappear....Anyway... In the past, losing 6 (six) 1 at home to Clyde on manky wet night amongst the most turgid season I can remember.In the present... Losing 3-0 at Tannadice in Laszlos first game. It was 3 going on 8, we were at peak shambles that day. Pre January clear out it was so clear that there were players out there not the least bit interested in avoiding humiliation. Really was painful viewing.
pozbaird Posted April 12, 2018 Posted April 12, 2018 Losing the 2010 League Cup final to 9 man Rangers. Next question please.
Scosha Posted April 12, 2018 Posted April 12, 2018 That Hamilton game a few years ago. Some morons amongst our support clapped the team off the pitch too We had a great shame game last season away at Ayr after they beat us which led to O’Ware being dragged away from the support by his team mates telling us “all yous do is fucking boo us, f**k off” or something along those lines. Fans were unhappy at an incredibly shite start to the season and weak squad, the following week or 2 we sign Gavin Gunning and Andy Murdoch and our season was excellent until March/April.

roman_bairn Posted April 12, 2018 Posted April 12, 2018 Losing 7-0 to Ross County in the League Cup a couple of seasons back would probably be up there with recent worsts.
Sloop John B Posted April 12, 2018 Posted April 12, 2018 Conceding a 90th minute winner to Albion Rovers denying the opportunity of a lucrative cup tie with Celtic. Failing to Score and losing on penalties to East Kilbride at Home. Being the last team to lose to Gary Locke’s Raith Rovers featuring a Rudi Skacel assist after bombarding their goal all game.

On other teams I remember the first time I read about the Hammerby game on here, sounded like a real life horror story. On a similar note I'd put Dunfermline conceding two goals to Hafnafjordur as the worst, brutal.
dafc_lee Posted April 12, 2018 Posted April 12, 2018 When we rocked up to Stirling Albion under Stephen Kenny. Stirling who hadn't won a home game in over a year bitch slapped us 3-0. My one and only visit there. Won't be back

We lost and were relegated. We lost and therefore went in to the playoffs. Where we lost to Alloa in the final and were relegated. Which brings me on to another playoff game. Another final. Second leg, East End Park vs Cowdenbeath.

I know the Airdrie game didn't relegate us, I was just highlighting that relegation wouldn't have been a possibility if we'd done the seemingly-simple task of not losing to them.

People chucking programs away and coming away properly raging at Hay after only two games in charge. I think it was the realisation that after Calderwood an era was over. We had a great side still and beaten by well organised amateurs.
