Tomo Posted November 12, 2023 Report Share Posted November 12, 2023 The picture of Riley celebrating a goal on the east end fence was iconic. The paper cutting used to be on the wall in Alan Roberts Newsagent. Anyone got it? There was a Facebook post years ago with some cracking images showing lots of other City goal celebrations. Of course Scotty's at Cardiff is probably the most iconic... But I would love to see 'Riley on the Eastend Fence' if anyone has it or can find it... 5 1 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davefevs Posted November 12, 2023 Report Share Posted November 12, 2023 I tried searching for it a while back but couldn’t find it. Can still picture it though. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrahamC Posted November 12, 2023 Report Share Posted November 12, 2023 Loved Riley, had a cat named after him. Proper hard worker & when we were a poor side his goals were a highlight. TC’s first signing for us & absolutely one of his best. 6 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TDarwall Posted November 12, 2023 Report Share Posted November 12, 2023 You think of Div 3/4 being total hoofball, but Riley & Neville upfront was a fantastic combo. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you roughly remember when this was, I wonder if the image may be in a follow up match programme. I have a few eighties ones knocking about over my dads I could have a flick through when there next Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Port Said Red Posted November 12, 2023 Report Share Posted November 12, 2023 I liked the one of him jumping over the advertising boards at Wembley and then having to be treated for cramp. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Offside Posted November 12, 2023 Report Share Posted November 12, 2023 I loved Riley’s celebration after his header at Wembley in 1986 as well (even though he got cramp!) 1 minute ago, Port Said Red said: I liked the one of him jumping over the advertising boards at Wembley and then having to be treated for cramp.

Oh Louie louie Posted November 13, 2023 Report Share Posted November 13, 2023 Anybody recall who celebrated a goal, by diving through the air, and pretending to score a rugby try, he got untold stick from the home end in a already spicy atmosphere, was a lovely goal to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cityal Posted November 13, 2023 Report Share Posted November 13, 2023 Was it Carl Shutt that tripped celebrating a goal and headbutted the advertising hoardings in front of the East end? maybe non-intentional but sort of iconic 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One Team Posted November 13, 2023 Report Share Posted November 13, 2023 Some superb goals and photos there, also loved Christian Roberts against Hartlepool. Away from City, Deeney’s goal for Watford in the play off semi final against Nige’s Leicester is one of my favourites. That the goal came straight from a penalty miss was superb but his celebration just jumping into all the fans was fantastic: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh Louie louie Posted November 14, 2023 Report Share Posted November 14, 2023 Martin kuhl pole axed somebody about two minutes in, which upset the Swansea fans, then he scored a goal of the season contender, and celebrated by pretending to score a try, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
