DancinDannyD Posted August 2, 2013 Report Share Posted August 2, 2013 It was in the Anglo Scottish Cup and it was 6.1 as we took the lead, I think we were still in front at half time .My Favourite goal at Ashton was from Gary Smart having totally outplayed you all game we finally got what we thoroughly deserved in injury time. Regards Rich Utg Ha ha, I'm not sure this is a wind up but that was the game that City hammered us for 89 mins until Smarts wonder strike! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miah Dennehy Posted August 2, 2013 Report Share Posted August 2, 2013 Chris Garland going on his hands and knees to head the ball in off the floor in a Gloucester Cup match against the squatters. Think we winning 5-0 and that goal made it 6. I heard Frankie Prince once say that he would have kicked his head off if he got there in time. One of the most gut wrenching moments I have had watching Rovers. I still hate Chris Garland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

i hate rovers Posted August 2, 2013 Report Share Posted August 2, 2013 4-2 win the League Cup, after losing the first leg 3-1 and going though on the away goals rule. Even then you went 1-0 up on the night .. Other than that Gary Smarts last minute 30 yd screamer on News Year Day to win 1-0 after you'd battered us all the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always Believesham Posted August 2, 2013 Report Share Posted August 2, 2013 The red & white night was pretty good, beating rovers 3-2 I've also got a fond memory of Peacock scoring a volley late on against Peterborough in the 03-04 season, think we overturned a 1-0 Beating Notts Co. in the 1996/7 season (may have been 95/6) 4-0; Goater got a hat trick and Agostino got 1 by half time Beating Cambridge 6-2, Lionel Perez handling outside the area, Beadle and Tinion taking a perfect indirect freekick (edit: even though it wasn't an indirect free-kick worthy offence) Rodney Jack breaking the score board for months whilst at Rushden & Diamonds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcfcOK Posted August 2, 2013 Report Share Posted August 2, 2013 When Cotterill scored that wonder goal against Huddersfield after our 9 game losing run in Johnson's first season. Big turnaround after that game. If we're allowed play off games, Trundle goal v Palace <<<<< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingswood Village Posted August 2, 2013 Report Share Posted August 2, 2013 5.3.91 - Donowa Close the thread now, I win This. Stood on the park end with some mates from school next to the scum rovers fans who chanted "where's your chairman gone" during the minutes silence for des Williams. This was countered by the loudest rendition of "you're just a bunch of *******" I have ever heard. Missed penalty by skeletor and it seems destined to end in in a 0-0 draw. Then my mate turns to me and says "come on, we need something to give the gas eads shit about on school tomorrow" with that Louie does his thing! Great day at school the following day - living in thornbury there was a real mix of city and gas. Happy memories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I remember correctly, and I don't wish to dampen your memories, but isn't overhead kick doing boom-boom some considerable generosity? I recall it more as a scrambled lanky overhead hook in! I remember it fondly too! Am I right in thinking we won 2-1? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
