Fordy62 Posted August 15, 2020 Report Share Posted August 15, 2020 Yeh... I’m bored.... please give your favourite City goals and include YouTube link if possible, I’ll go first, I think that this is the best City goal ever. Granted, it was meaningless and he’d later go onto become zero from hero, but my what technical skills these were... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phileas Fogg Posted August 15, 2020 Report Share Posted August 15, 2020 There is lots of obvious ones I could pick - Bryan or Smith vs United, Bryan vs Rovers, Bryan vs Swindon, JET vs Rovers, Noble vs Palace, Trundle vs Palace.. One from left field that I remembered was Brooker vs Norwich in 08’. Not an especially impressive goal, but was incredibly late in the game and was a really important win. Sadly no video footage I could find. Another that I’ve remembered is Wilbraham vs Swinson in the 3-0 win. I just knew after that goal we were definitely going up. He struck the shot with such venom, and I was very close to Cotterill in the Williams stand. I could see how much it meant to Cotterill and it felt like we’d finally got payback for November. 1.00 in this clip https://youtu.be/6-3wag9stNc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 15, 2020 Report Share Posted August 15, 2020 Can never remember if it was Cashley or Gibbo that scored from a kick out of his area....... closely followed by a Galley volley from a corner at Eastend end against.....somebody more recent Tinman at Anfield and Cheesley v Arse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BS15_RED Posted August 15, 2020 Report Share Posted August 15, 2020 Sorry the video’s not the best quality, and for the Italian commentary, but Louis Carey’s goal against Palace in the play offs back in 2008 has always been a favourite of mine. It was overshadowed by Noble’s worldy in the same game, but this goal was a thing of beauty in its own right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dolman Pragmatist Posted August 15, 2020 Report Share Posted August 15, 2020 Tony Thorpe vs the Gas, 22nd December 2000. No question. Someone put the video up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phileas Fogg Posted August 15, 2020 Report Share Posted August 15, 2020 It would be really cool if the club could reupload highlights in an archive. Ideally full 90 min replays. No idea where they’d stand on rights etc, but it’s such a shame that it’s difficult to find videos of goals from before 2014ish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was right behind that in the upper tier that day, one of those rare goals that’s every bit as good when you see it on tv as it was live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davefevs Posted August 15, 2020 Report Share Posted August 15, 2020 Bob Newman v Newport - 40 yarder Jimmy Mann v Forest - million yarder (in my head) past Shilton Trevor Morgan v Chester - best headed goal I’ve seen at AG Lee Tomlin v Wednesday - assisted himself and half volley goal Joe Bryan v Man Utd - purest of pure strikes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great little free kick routine - I think Gary said it was called "The Weasel" or something? 45 minutes ago, Phileas Fogg said: One from left field that I remembered was Brooker vs Norwich in 08’.

I think he came on as a pretty late sub after being out injured (as he often was) for a long period - it was a header from a corner in front of the East End from what I remember? It kind of epitomised that feeling we could always get something from a game I had at that time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love that! Probably my fave city goal,,, plus the hartlepool play off winner by roberts, and murray vs oldham. maynards v qpr has to be the best city goal ive seen in 35 years or so.

italian dave Posted August 15, 2020 Report Share Posted August 15, 2020 From a technique point of view, I'd agree with you @Fordy62 about that Maynard one being up there. The goal we got at Blackburn, I think, at the end of about 40 passes a couple of years ago, and the winner at Fulham last year would be up there too. Sheer goal of the season stuff, Jimmy Mann v Forest , 30+'yards and probably the sweetest hit I've ever seen. But for memorability; before any one else says it, Christian Roberts at Mansfield and also v Hartlepool. And any of those penalties JET used to take! I was at Notts Co when he first did it, right at the end and we needed it for a result, and I don't think any of us could believe what we were seeing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The run from Aaron Brown and the cross was perfect. couple of goals other than the ones mentioned were Murray against Oldham at home when Oldham were so so good away from home. Murray ran from the halfway line from what I remember. Lee Tomlin against Huddersfield where he flicked the ball up to himself. Christian Roberts against Hartlepool in the play offs, simply for the drama. His finish was cool as you like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red-Robbo Posted August 15, 2020 Report Share Posted August 15, 2020 Keith Fear's chip against Leeds in 1974. Partially because I was unusually close to pitchside when I watched it.

Loco Rojo Posted August 15, 2020 Report Share Posted August 15, 2020 Murray v Oldham (literally). Ran the entire length of the pitch to score in front of the Atyeo. Never a better goal and gutted I've got no video to share. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
