Re: That Acquah Goal: Probably an all-time Top Tenner
You,re right WG it was Southampton. Your memory clearer than mine on the opposition but I remember the goal. Not many on here will have seen it.

Re: That Acquah Goal: Probably an all-time Top Tenner
It nearly took the net off -- that's why l remember it. I would like to contribute more towards this thread but my memory is sketchy also. However, l have decent recall of Micky Carroll's free kick, Jason's Wembley winner and an outrageous Kenny Lowe lob against somebody or other. Relying on others to jog the old memory bank further.
We will follow the soccer, over land and sea...

My first thought was Mick Richmond too!
Also Royston Taylor from the half-way line, circa 1981.

How about Ollie Banks against Barnsley described by one of their fans as reminiscent of his dad 'Banger' Banks a former Barnsley favourite.

Completely incorrect, was a great goal and a massive disservice to call it a fluke.Sea Dog Sam wrote: ↑Wed Mar 06, 2024 6:23 pm I believe I know the goal you're referring to by Josh Gordon - the one that was intended as a cross into the box - but flew into the net. That was a fluke.

This, Big Joe Corrigan in goals for Man Citeh Dennis Turrat spelling & a host of first teamers & that move finished off by Mickys thunderbolt was a classic goal, Great shout Chipmunxchipmunx wrote: ↑Thu Mar 07, 2024 12:54 am Micky Richmond goal in a 2-2 draw against Man City in September 1982 has to be up there (it was a testimonial match or something). Up there with Brad Barry's goal in the 2-2 draw away at Chesterfield (24 August 2019) as the best goals i've seen by a Barrow defender.

Re: That Acquah Goal: Probably an all-time Top Tenner
I have recollections of Mark Dobie scoring more than one very similar goal from the same position. I was standing in the same location all those years ago and distinctly remember the Carlos-esque spaff on the ball.

Ah yes, one of the funnier fan commentaries on a goal:
- He thinks he is **** Ronaldo
Ball smashes in to top right corner.
- Oh!
