DaveF Posted January 29, 2021 Report Share Posted January 29, 2021 Tomlin against Huddersfield wins hands down, the first touch lob and the volley are pretty unique. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedEd73 Posted January 29, 2021 Report Share Posted January 29, 2021 2 hours ago, Offside said: The third goal v Bolton at Wembley in 1986. Superb move in the build up to that. Nicky Morgan’s header v Blackburn after Dave Smith had belted down the wing. Very similar to Thorpe’s goal v the gas. Bob Taylor’s goals in his hat-trick at Swansea have already been mentioned. He also scored a great volley at Cardiff that season and another one at home to Crewe (in the game he got the injury that finished his season). Also I remember Luke Wiltshire scoring from by the halfway line, not sure who it was against. Also a very hazy memory of a long range David Clarkson effort. This.....30 yard volley! Fantastic hit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No question. I almost put this myself. This is the first live City goal I can really recall. Watched this again the other day and the run was even better than I had remembered.

You picked the two I was going to say Donovan,s was absolutely brilliant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hollydog Posted January 29, 2021 Report Share Posted January 29, 2021 3 hours ago, Loco Rojo said: I've got it. The greatest City goal to end all great City goals (and no ones mentioned it here yet) Murray running the length of the pitch towards the Atyeo where I was sat. Ran through everyone, against Oldham (i think) many years ago. Hands down winner and I'll never forget it. I was living in Oldham at the time and listening on local radio. Even the Radio Manchester commentator was drooling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glastonred Posted January 29, 2021 Report Share Posted January 29, 2021 Tomlin's goal v (I think) Huddersfield, when he lobbed it forward, and then ran onto it before volleying it into the net. (You know the one!)... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheesley’s header at Arsenal is the one I’d wish I’d been there for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recall a fantastic Galley volley in the comeback from 3-1 down to win 5-3 vs Orient, but that one was scored at the open end so probably not the same one. My favourite goal ( not necessarily the most spectacular) was Clive Whitehead's early doors winner vs Pompey to secure promoting to the top flight. In terms of spectacular goals, you’d have to go a long way to see 2 more spectacular goals in the same game as away at Leicester around 2008/9. Firstly Ivan Sproule's amazing run through the entire Leicester defence and then Cole Skuse’s 30 yard piledriver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tin Soldier Posted January 30, 2021 Report Share Posted January 30, 2021 Some great memories on this Thread. BUT I just want us to remember the goals Gerry Gow and Donnie Gillies scored at Highfield road to keep us in Div 1. The press called it The Great Escape as we beat a host of top Div 1 clubs to stay up, in the run up to that game. City took an estimated 20K to the game. Bristol offices, schools, even Crown Court Jury’s finished early to get to the game. Always remember watching as an 11 year old with my dad in Dolman B Block Gerry Gow laying into Sammy McIlroy on the pitch (both got sent off), when we played Man United during that run up to the Coventry game. The sense of anticipation at AG home games at the time was palpable. The Liverpool night game at AG, etc. Still makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up when I watch YouTube reruns etc. Great memories for those that were there.

Redtrojan Posted January 30, 2021 Report Share Posted January 30, 2021 Tom Richie at eastville in the cup . The infamous 1-0 down 2-1 up we knocked rovers out the cup game. We were on a dreadful downhill spiral and really didn’t expect much especially after the gas went 1-0 up .But the miracle happened and the packed open end at eastville bounced and cheered ,the joy of that goal especially bearing in mind the opposition was amazing.The euphoria at the final whistle was fantastic.
