It was eerie, and easily the weirdest ambience I’ve ever felt around Molineux.The run in that season was excruciating. I don’t like talking about it.
I Was returning to a state of near normality on the Monday after, when my phone pinged.I’d agreed that I would give my Watford-supporting brother-in-law a lift home from Watford station after the game (we made the short journey up to Wembley together with my Dad and son).
He (understandably) stayed a while to bask in the celebrations so I had to sit, in a state of pure numbness, outside the station for about an hour as thousands of jubilant Watford supporters filed past me.
By far the worst I have ever felt over a game of football. Didn’t sleep at all that night and still felt numb for a good few days after.
Feel very guilty and embarrassed that my son saw me that depressed by a football result…particularly as 8-year old me vividly remembered my Dad being similarly silent on the walk back to the car having lost to Aldershot in the Play-Offs.
Being 2 up away at forest and blues and blowing it makes me ****** off thinking about itIt was eerie, and easily the weirdest ambience I’ve ever felt around Molineux.
Agreed, but far more for me posters on here who jumped on the Nuno train then first to stick the knife in.I was strangely ok with the fa cup semi, it was harsh for us to lose but the trajectory around the club at the time felt like we'd be back again soon enough, so I wasn't too down at the time.
The worst time for me was slowly watching everything Nuno had built crumble before our eyes into a pale imitation of what once was. No longer would we chant about Nuno, no longer would Nuno be like a deity around the city - those times where success had seemed so solid with such sure foundations had gone, an era came and went and seeing it's sad decline was truly heartbreaking. Nuno had gone from the heartbeat of everything that was good, to a mere memory.
Same here, i looked down at my lad and thought "what i have i put you through", honestly thought he would have to go through what i did in the 80's, thank you Kenny Jackett. To be fair to him he has forgiven me now.Probably like fans of most clubs there's been a fair few gut wrenching moments over the years.
Possibly my worst was Brighton away last game of the 2012/13 season, where relegation to League 1 was confirmed, O'hara laughed when getting stick for not pulling his weight (which actually would have been pretty difficult considering his lack of fitness) and to cap it all the Brighton fans actually feeling sorry for us and singing about how our board had *****d it up.
Sky Sports zoomed in on me looking completely ****ed off at 1-3 in the 1-5 West Brom defeat.The Watford penalty in the FA Cup semi final, my heart just sank. From then I knew we were going to lose.
Even worse is that the photo the press used of their Extra Time goal has both my father and I clearly in the centre of the image. We are both stood with our heads in ours hands.

I've heard that no wolves supporters witnessed that 3rd game, so that's probably why it isn't mentioned here?No one mentioned Chorley yet
My concern with Peter Knowles is that he's leaving it a bit late for his comeback.Even as a very young boy I was perplexed by Peter Knowles packing up football the way that he did.
Oh I’m not going to be able to sleep tonight now you’ve brought that one back to me.Bolton. Watford.
And Ronald Zubar back pass against Bolton to lose 1-0 at the death after Doyle had hit the post. So, so, so angry after that.
We can still hope though.My concern with Peter Knowles is that he's leaving it a bit late for his comeback.
I don’t know, he could always replace NevesMy concern with Peter Knowles is that he's leaving it a bit late for his comeback.
Doyle hit the post? Did he?Bolton. Watford.

The day I lost belief in God, as a young teenager he was my hero, pictures and cuttings from the E&S emblazened my bedroom, my absolute hero/God.Even as a very young boy I was perplexed by Peter Knowles packing up football the way that he did.
Bully, even in spite of everything you've said below that (all of which is pretty accurate)I don't get the nostalgia for the 90's
Didn't go to Palace, but watched it from the BW lower on that fabulous giant TV screens set up Jonathan Hayward thought was the way forward! That third goal is the only time I've really felt that physical kicked it the stomach pain.Too many to mention, could add a few examples with no mention of Chorley
Losing to Spurs in 1972 UEFA Cup Final
Losing to Leeds in 1973 semi final
1982 Bankruptcy
1985 Rotherham 6 Wolves 0
Play offs v Crystal Palace 1997, 3 rd goal in first leg just after we scored
Basically supporting Wolves since the early 60's has been a rollercoaster, which is probably unique in the entire football league.
I was in Gioia Del Colle as part of Op Deliberate Guard when the two legs were played, I remember coming back in from the flight line to get the score and was devastated when I heard we had lost 3-1. I managed to watch the second leg with the rest of the lads and had the **** ripped out of me mercilessly all game. I physically couldn’t stand it and ended up playing my joker next morning after drinking myself into a comaDidn't go to Palace, but watched it from the BW lower on that fabulous giant TV screens set up Jonathan Hayward thought was the way forward!
