What are your top 5 Away goals which you have seen live at the ground i.e. not on tv/robins TV etc

Just your own favourite goals, based on your elation at the time, could be the technique, the occasion or both. 

In no particular order:

Player, v Team,  Year:

1. Tomlin v Fulham, 2016

2. Noble v Palace, 2008

3. Jacky v Leicester, 1992

4. Tinnion v Liverpool, 1994

5. Brownhill, V Cardiff, 2019

You could almost answer this thread with a single player:

Matt Smith at The Gills, Micky Mouse Trophy Area Finals.

Perfect hat-trick plus a fly-by-wire exocet.

Few there to have witnessed but four more exquisitely taken goals in 90 mins I'll never see bettered in a red shirt. Given he was fully deserving of his epithet ' The Wardrobe', utter bewilderment.

Murray vs Middlesbrough

McIndoe vs Palace

Clarkson vs Leicester? (The one he shinned from about 40 yards out and took an age to drop in)

Smith vs Man Utd

Bryan vs G*s

Combo of meaningful, sublime and comical goals that have stuck with me

These are at home

Four second half goals by John Atyeo away to Shrewsbury on Easter Monday April 1965.  City beat Shrewsbury 3-0 the following night and Oldham 2-0 on the Saturday to clinch promotion. I didn’t see the Matt Smith goals, but I did see the Atyeo goals as an impressionable schoolboy.

Reid at Man City was probs the best I’ve ever felt as a City fan. I couldn’t believe we were beating the best in England 1-0. 

Tomlin at Fulham. 

Agard to make it 2-1 at West Brom in the FA cup was class, some of the best limbs I’ve been a part of that day. 

McCombe away at Doncaster was great.

& Chris Wood penalty away at Forest. Only had about 200 of us there, under the cosh most of the game, Carey & Gerken heroics saving us & somehow came away with a win.

Certainly Gillies at Coventry meant the most, so Tinnion v Liverpool & Korey against Man U also have to be there.

Hirst against the few was memorable & McIndoe v Palace meant we were going to Wembley.

Expect I’ve missed loads.

Certainly have! Whitehead v Pompey has to be there, take out McIndoe..

Martin Hirst v Rovers

Mardon v Forest

Tins v Liverpool

Tomlin v Fulham

and a personal favourite - rubbish goal but set the seal on a great night - Wilbs v Bradford to make it 6

Similar: Hirst, Mardon and Tins, plus

Super Bob at Rotherham (1-0 down at half time, Del Amitri “kiss this thing goodbye” at half time, won 2-1)

John Bailey at Crewe

Plenty to choose from over the last 35 years. I'm surprised nobody has mentioned Maynard's at QPR; and this one from the beast from the east Ivan Testimiranu.

 

Hardly anyone saw it live! 

Midweek game at Chesterfield?
Must admit I went, but then I was living in Worcester at the time.

Mann v Shilton,  , he always says the best goal he's ever conceded . 

Curle v Newport, 3/4 the length of the pitch,similar to.......

Scotties v Oldham (?)

I was there for Keith Curle’s goal vs Newport. Brought the ball out of defence like an early version of Webster and just kept going. I am sure that Pulis was in the Newport team
