Bobby Robson's Worst Game

by Geekins » 31 Jul 2009 16:20

To honour a great man, I thought we'd discuss what was his worst game. It obviously cannot be one of those games in Italia '90 and certainly not the one against Belgium, where David Platt scored a cracking goal.

What do you think?

Holland game in the 1988 European Championships. That was f*cking bad.

Holland 3 England 1

Great offside trap for their 2nd, hmmmm
They were a great side mind, losing to Ireland a few days before must have hurt.

More like luck was on our side that day.
If I remeber that game correctly England struck the post twice before we scored the first.
If only one of them had gone in, Holland would have never won this game or the tournament.

At least Holland were a good side, the Irish performance was dire in 88. If I had to pick one though it would be Moroco the 2nd game of the 86 world cup we were clueless and even old crab Wilkins got sent off. And more by luck than judgement it meant he changed the team formation we thrashed Poland and the rest is history, had Maradonna not cheated us out we could have won that world cup.

Typical of sour Reading fans that don't have anything to celebrate about or can in anyway connect Sir Bobby with their club to make a thread like this a day after his death.

You confirm everything I think about you scumbag Reading fans, clueless moronic c*nts.

See you at Portman Road.

0-0 V Morocco in the 1986 world cup when African teams were less of a force than they are now.

Take a chill pill, having watched the tributes to the great man, the one thing that cames across more than any other was a great sense of humour and the abilaty to laugh at himself. I'm sure he would be the first to admit that the above mentioned games were some of the few low points in otherwise wonderful career.
