Sutekh Anyone mentioned Robin Friday's 20/30/40/50/60/70/80 yard overhead belter* against Tranmere in 1975?

* depending on who you speak to


My dad was at that game. I asked him about it and he shrugged his shoulders and said 'It was alright'.

He then laughed and proceeded to spend about an hour talking me through it.

Ark Royal Personal favourite is Mickey Walsh, Blackpool v Sunderland 1975 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XnKBwYHAbE4



Love that. And of course Ronnie Radford for Hereford in the Cup against Newcastle

I don't even need to link to it. You've all seen it a thousand times

Also Justin Fashanu for Norwich vs Liverpool in 1980

brilliant understated commentary, 'one of the best goals at Carrow Road this season' :lol:

How about like, ever?

Friday picked the ball up somewhere the other side of Prospect Park, did 101 keepy-uppys, pulled his socks up (just to set a trend), then volleyed in from 2 1/2 miles,

Don't you know anything ? :roll:

THAT Ibrahimovic goal against England actually had my mouth open in a cartoonesque expression of surprise.

There's so many brilliant goals I think it's simply impossible to pick one out over all of the others. I mean you could easily watch this and pick out 10 or so 'contenders' from 2014, let alone the past 50 years... http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=NurlfAcY378

Goals were just better in the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s though.

Sanguine My personal favourite is Yeboah's against Wombledon.


I was actually at that game. Certainly the best goal I've ever seen live and probably the best I've seen anywhere. I still remember the sound of the ball hitting the bar, incredible.

Trevor Sinclair overhead kick I remember well enough to not have to see the clip. An absolute belter of a finish, right up there with the very best.

I'm not suggesting these are better than some that have already been suggested, but this thread prompted me to look back at Le Tissier videos, purely because I was mesmerised by him as a kid.

But yeah, as far as compilations go... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YB9HjYmYwpk
