A neutral might agree.
This would be my candidate for worst game (probably 2nd to Bristol Rovers). It wasn't OK. We lost.

RoyallyFcuked For me, there's a few but it was probably the 4-3 away win at Forest in 2010/11, amazing topsy turvy game of football that we deservedly won in the last minute. We were on a great run at the time and there was an overwhelming feeling we were going up, even though it didnt end that away.

But there was one game at Burnley with Sidwell in the team where we scored 5 and for about half of the second half we were absolutely unplayable. Burnley weren't a particular lower league powerhouse back then, but it was like a Conference team had scored a big draw in the FA Cup, and we were the Premiership giants.

Burnley's defending was atrocious that day. I'd say 4 of our 5 goals were down to defenders tripping over the ball or over their own feet.

me 2001 Playoff semi v Wigan. Second leg. That was the first time I remember a really good atmosphere at the Madejski.

Norfolk Royal That 4-0 win at Elm Park against Aldershot on an Easter Bank Holiday around 1977 was about as good as it gets imo.

JC 1985 Reading 4 Plymouth 3
We were top of the table after the 13 wins in a row and Plymouth were 2nd.
3 down with 25 minutes to go and the ground starting to empty. Dean Horrix pulls one back from the spot on 65. 3 goals in 79,80 and 83rd minutes to win it. Unbelievable

I put it down to the fact that, quite simply, they didn't know what to do.
I was generally wowed. I take it you have a different view? That we were gifted?
Wikipedia Burnley's downfall was their poor defense, which was the worst in the league: 5 goals conceded against both Grimsby and Reading, 6 against Rotherham, 7 against Sheffield Wednesday and Watford, and 89 overall, the worst in the First Division and third-worst in the entire Football League.

Jack Celliers Best defeat was Peterborough away the year before. We played fantastically with Caskey controlling everything. The whole second half was just wave after wave of blue and white swarming towards our noisy terrace. They got a penalty for head-ball and stole the game.

There are 2 wins at Turf Moor that live long in the memory though, 2-1 in 1995 and 3-0 in 2006. The first a classic away win in a torrential downpour and freezing conditions and the second an excellent team performance
