  We might as well have a bit of fun after the strain of watching the premier league nervous finish between the two Manchester clubs.
It might have been done before but the question is this
WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE INDIVUEL G.T.F.C. GOAL.


Mine was when Town were playing Brighton away and at that time Brian Clough was manager after having fell out with Peter Taylor at Derby. Jack Lewis who had tremendous pace and skill control picked the ball up from goalkeeper Harry Wainman took of with all of us chasing him in support went the full length of the pitch and slotted the ball in the net.

I could not believe it what a great goal, but the ref disallowed the goal for some unknown reason, but I am still counting it.
That was the best goal I have seen with Town, can anybody remember a really special goal.

If this has been done before pleas accept my apoligies.

I remember once when Ronnie Bull hit the ball on the volley from 45 yards out. It went out for a throw-in but I'm still going to count it.

Round about 1966, a bullet Matt Tees header against Workington from the edge of the area.
Also a volley by Mike Czuczman in the mid-seventies against Watford or Crystal Palace ?

Des Hazel away at Portsmouth. Picked the ball up just outside his own area and ran the whole length of the pitch beating about half a dozen Pompey players on the way.

Jim Dobbin scored a great goal against someone at home. Beat 2 men before curling the ball into the top corner.
Another was Tommy Widdringtons volley from 30 yards v QPR. Cant remember dates though.


"Falls to Arnold... Arnold! That's it! Thats it! He's sealed it! Grimsby Town are back in the football league!!! Just a minute to go and Nathan Arnold makes it 3-1! Look at the scenes behind the goal! Look at the relief! The agony is finally over!!!"

Although he didn't end up scoring it but Kevin Donovan at Chesterfield in Auto Windscreens '98.  Great box to box sprint with the ball then picked Groves with the cross for him to score a great volley from the edge of box.  I remember thinking at the time I'd never see a better goal for Town and it's still true.  So far.

The goal versus Burneley in the Northern Final, I remember shouting shoot ( I guess nearly everyone did) and as soon as it left the boot we knew it was in, as a 16 year old knowing I had school in the morning, I couldn't wait to gloat I would be going to Wembley to see my team, my team I had seen from Old Division 4, my team who I took so much stick for supporting.

Other goals include Macca Versus Norwhich in the FA CUP 1998- A rare goal but his celebration showed what it meant

Burnetts Wembley goal

Several of Mendoncas goals.

Dobbin versus Newcastle

Bonetti versus West Brom

Thanoj against Wrexham

I will remeber a lot more later I am sure

Jevons at Liverpool definately, but I do remember Livvo once running from the halfway line cutting inside round a couple of players and banged it home. Dont remember the game but it was from in front of the main stand and into the pontoon goal.

I think Dave's original post might have been understood.

I assume he meant best individual goal, ie one player taking on a number of opponents before scoring rather than Forbes at Barnet, Wilkies at Everton or Thanoj's at Wrexham. which although all were brilliant goals could hardly be describe as "best individual goal".

Unless I've misunderstood Dave's question that is.

Am I allowed three?  Michael Leary's wonder goal at Barrow (a once in a lifetime experience).  I have fond memories of Nick Hegarty's goal in front of the Pontoon and his jubilation with Mighty Mariner afterwards.  And Shaleum Logan on his debut v Rochdale - and the series of back flips he performed afterwards, right under Alan Buckley's nose.

Oh and of course JP Kalala v Tottenham.  Loved that.  

That's four actually.

P.S. Probably not 'individual' in the strictest sense of the word, although I think Shaleum Logan's might have been.

Exactly Les you described it just as I meant it to be.

Really what I mean is that from not having any chance of scoring the player has made a chance out of nothing whether he has taken the opposition on
himself to eventually maybe doing an overhead kick like Rooney did the other month for Man United

That is what I meant by YOUR FAVOURITE INDIVUEL GTFC GOAL.

Chima Okori's goal against Tranmere in what was I think the Autowindscreen's. Dreadful game which we lost 4-1 I think, but he must have beaten 6 players for his goal.

Remember coming away thinking he was going to become a Town legend. I was heartbroken when he broke his leg in a reserve game a short time afterwards and don't think he ever played for us again.

It's just a shame that there's no footage (as far as I know) of Des Hazel's goal at Pompey as ran almost the full length of the pitch before scoring. I'm sure Pseudonym must remember it though.

A goal Neil Woods scored against Orient I think.

He got the ball on the half way line, near the Findus, Turned and lost his man completely, played a 1/2 with Tony Rees and slotted past the Keeper

The Bonetti goal against West Brom. It was the only time I can recall the ground shaking when we cheered. The ET published a photograph of Bonetti kicking the ball with the Lower Stones in the background and right in the centre of the picture was me and my dad. I bought a copy of the photo from the Telewag, framed it and it stood centre-stage for many a year but it 'disappeared' in a house move (that'll be the ex - she never liked football).

I wish I still had it as the old man died some years ago.

David Soames at Pride Park on New Years Day I think... Made it 3-1 absolutely the best moment I've had as a town fan, surpasses any wembley win, spurs et al, definitely the best feeling was when this goal went in!

Second, northy away at Mansfield, loved that goal and could watch it over AND over!

JPK's goal v Spurs

Third goal away at Cheltenham where the defender was given a 5 yard head start yet Cohen raped him for pace and beat the keeper with ease. It was like a whore lighting a cig after an orgy, so casual,easy and all in a days work

Contact the ET. They keep archives that you can buy. They're BOUND to have that one. I think I'm right in saying you can browse the archives and order online? Someone else may be able to point you in the right direction.

There are alot of good goals but I have 2 favourites.  1st Jim Dobbin vs Newcastle at St James totally stunned the home crowd with a Bullit from 30 yards.  And Garry Birtles freekick against Coventry in the cup at home.  It was inch perfect from Birtles I was stood on the bar behind the goal and he curled it in right into the top corner I think we won 1-0 but lost 3-0 in the 2nd leg.

All these goals being mentioned are superb goals but people are still missing Dave's original point. I think he should maybe have put best SOLO goal. He's really looking for goals a bit like Maradona's (legitimate) goal in the World Cup against England, where one player has beaten several players on a run before scoring rather than solitary strikes.

Good point les can't remember the game but I know it was at home Michael Reddys solo goal.  I think it was a corner for the opposition and we cleared the ball to Reddy (I think one of slades tactics) deep into the half way line and beat 3 players before placing the ball into the bottom left corner, well from what I can remember what my mate said.

I think I remember Andy Parkinson scoring a great solo goal at home to Yeovil and Ashley Sestanovich scoring a similar one at Yeovil in the same season.

Joe Waters vs Sheffield United 1979-80 promotion season from the old 3rd division to the 2nd. The game is best remembered for Kevin Drinkell's hat trick, but Joe scored a goal in the 2nd half that he started roundabout the halfway line, went on a mazy dribble and shot home from inside the area. Absolutely amazing goal, and as good as any I'd ever seen at BP. Throw in the fact it was  a game we had to win, against a team that had led the division for long periods before falling away spectacularly, and a near 20,000 crowd and cue MAYHEM. never, ever, forget that one. What about you Barralad?


No attempt at ethical or social seduction can eradicate from my heart a deep burning hatred of the Tory party. So far as I'm concerned they're lower than vermin. Aneurin Bevan.

Michael boulding against Crystal palace?


Yeah, that was a cracker.

Jack Lester against the Sun readers favourite El Tel's Palace in 1998. Stuck Dean Austin into the lower Findus on halfway, ran a bit, cut inside onto his right foot, and slammed it into the bottom corner. An atypical excellent finish from Super Jack for us, it has to be said.

Darren Mansaram....possibly against Doncaster at home...started near the Findus...ran across the edge of box then turned back...all looking completely lost...then slapped into the top corner......great goal as everyone thought ...what the F is he doing as he ran away from goal before turning back....great goal as it was something out of the blue from a player not associated with that sort of ability.

Yeah, it was that game. Just found this on Cod Almighty.

Quoted Text
A forward line of Thompson, Rowan and Mansaram was an interesting experiment during a reserve game, I am sure, but not one which filled the departing moaners with any hope. The game was gone, lost, awful, shocking, dreadful, dinners were on tables when Town won a throw in, under the Smiths/Stones/Findus Stand. Gallimore lobbed it to Mansaram, about 20 yards out in a big muddy bog. Mansaram turned infield and meandered across the face of the box. He beat one player, came to another and beat him, all the time going laterally. The crowd were beginning to grizzle, expecting a shot or at least a pass out to Cooke. By this time Mansaram had gone beyond the other corner of the penalty area. Instead of passing, he came back. Oh, here we go, a Keystone Cop ramshackle journey across the pitch, to a land that time forget. Woooah! MANSARAM lifted his left leg, and whacked a supreme shot low into the bottom left hand corner. A foot like a traction engine. Bang, bang it's in. What a shocker, what a stinker for Burnley.

There's 3 that stick in my mind. The first two are by the great man Big Keith Alexander. Number 1, 8th November 1988, my 14th bithday and Town are at home against Doncaster on a Tuesday night, we whooped them 5-0 and Keith's was fantastic. The ball went here there and everywhere but stayed with him before stroking it into the Pontoon net. The second was a few weeks later against Scarborough, picking the ball up by the Mainstand and with defender in tow he cut diagonally towards the Pontoon, into the area, past the out stretched keeper before rolling the ball into the net ( I still have the pictures from the telegraph of it) BRILLIANT. Number 3, Garry Birtles against Coventry when they came top from Division 1 and got whooped 3-1 in the Littlewoods Cup. Oh happy, happy days.

The Bonetti goal against West Brom. It was the only time I can recall the ground shaking when we cheered. The ET published a photograph of Bonetti kicking the ball with the Lower Stones in the background and right in the centre of the picture was me and my dad. I bought a copy of the photo from the Telewag, framed it and it stood centre-stage for many a year but it 'disappeared' in a house move (that'll be the ex - she never liked football).

I wish I still had it as the old man died some years ago.


Was only watching that on an old video tape last night.

I think I remember Andy Parkinson scoring a great solo goal at home to Yeovil and Ashley Sestanovich scoring a similar one at Yeovil in the same season.



I think Andy Parkinson's was goal of the season that season with the convict's coming second if i remember correctly.

The Doncadter own goal in the JPT at BP



Wasn't there a cracking own goal from a Wolves player in the Osmond end, I think we beat them 4-1 that day.

Other goals include Macca Versus Norwhich in the FA CUP 1998- A rare goal but his celebration showed what it meant

UTM



A good goal but not as good as the goal he scored at Bradford late on when I think we lost in the FA Cup 2-1

Andy Parkinson against Lincoln on a cold wintry snowy night or Ciaron Toner against Carlisle on an equally cold November afternoon. Both very memorable goals for me.

Quoted from jock dock tower
Joe Waters vs Sheffield United 1979-80 promotion season from the old 3rd division to the 2nd. The game is best remembered for Kevin Drinkell's hat trick, but Joe scored a goal in the 2nd half that he started roundabout the halfway line, went on a mazy dribble and shot home from inside the area. Absolutely amazing goal, and as good as any I'd ever seen at BP. Throw in the fact it was  a game we had to win, against a team that had led the division for long periods before falling away spectacularly, and a near 20,000 crowd and cue MAYHEM. never, ever, forget that one. What about you Barralad?


That game was televised, so hopefully someone has it on VHS and can up load it to You Tube.

Any takers???
