City oz Posted October 25, 2019 Report Share Posted October 25, 2019 I was in the old enclosure in front of the grand stand and alway remember Ray Cashley scoring a goal. It was a very foggy night but you could see all his kicks were for some reason landing in Hull City’s box area. In the second half he managed to score, the ball bounced in front of the Hull keeper and went straight over his head in to the net. This was early 1973. Any one else witnessed a City goalie scoring a goal ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBW Posted October 25, 2019 Report Share Posted October 25, 2019 David James must have scored one during his time here. Own goal, but still... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coxy27 Posted October 25, 2019 Report Share Posted October 25, 2019 I am fully prepared to be corrected here - however, I'm going to say that Cashley's goal is the only time a goalkeeper has scored in a competitive fixture for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

italian dave Posted October 25, 2019 Report Share Posted October 25, 2019 Didn't that giant German (Maierhoffer?) score for us one game and play in goal for part of the next? I think he only played about 3 times at the very end of GJs reign, and his has to be about the most bizarre Bristol City career ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any one else witnessed a City goalie scoring a goal ? Definitely not foggy. It was raining and there was a howling gale blowing straight down the ground. I was standing on the East End directly behind the goal when Ray launched his kick down towards the other end. There was a moments pause when the ball went in the net then the whole ground erupted. Great moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One bounce and over Jeff Wealands head into the net. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't remember foggy though. It was raining heavily and I was one of just a few on the Open End. The ball was brown and as mentioned, bounced once and passed over the head of Wealands who had come out of his goal to catch the ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cityexile Posted October 25, 2019 Report Share Posted October 25, 2019 Its cheating a bit as will not be in the stats, but have half a memory of a keeper taking one in a penalty shoot out once. Might also have entirely made that up mind! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got the three games right though. I think one was GJs last game at Plymouth, which is remembered for other reasons now. But I remember that we were truly awful that night: we stuck this guy (who was about 7') up front, and the clear instruction for every City player was quite clearly to just launch the ball skyward in his general direction.

Sir Geoff Posted October 25, 2019 Report Share Posted October 25, 2019 I too was at the Hull game (age 11). That goal is still one of my great City memories. I was lucky enough to be near the front of the East End to the side of the goal so had a view of it all the way down the pitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
