What were they?

1957 financial scandal i reckon the biggest
Appointing Peter Reid
Wilkinson appointment
Keane
Moyes - although it was a matter of time before we went down
Alex Neil. Losing him is tough but hope we can build on his impact

If you know your history...

And you clearly don't!

Signing 10 Scots to create the team of all of the talents, 1892 league winners.
 
Moving to the stadium of light was definitely one, however for 2 contrasting reasons:

1. moving stadiums especially to a quite superb arena like the SOL is always a big event for a football club, but
2. the results in the stadium have by and large been appalling. We've been relegated what 3...4 times since we started playing in it?

And remember what I'm saying - the stadium is absolutely superb to look at inside and out, fabulous arena - but boy, and I'm only 21 - we have seen some utter shite played in it.

The top one definitely, perhaps the second also. The others are nowt really in our 143 year history.

Alex Neil or Moyes are meaningless, next to say, winning the FA Cup in 1973.

Yeah i worded wrong i meant appointing him because he finally got us out of league 1 which could be a platform to better things. Losing hin is a risk we will see if that plays out

Possibly bigger than all of them was turning down Cloughie when he applied for the job.
