And did it count?

November 9th. 1968.
Barrow versus Plymouth Argyle.
In the 77th. minute, with the score at 0-0, George McLean fired a mis-hit across the Plymouth goal and Irish Republic goalkeeper Pat Dunne came out for a routine collection.
The referee tried to jump out of the way, but the result was a perfect back heel into the unguarded net.
The final score 1-0.

I also remember another from one of the old Danny Baker videos.  It was an English old Division 1 game, possibly from the 70s.

Never seen it Ginny, think I'll give it a watch.

Recognised the ref straight away, he also played the suicidal lodger in "Rising Damp."



When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

It's a cracking little tale that one. I saw it when I was a kid and it's always stuck with me. It was my first thought when I saw the title of the thread.
Love the advice when the little toe rags are pilfering too.

I posted the article because it was George McLean.
Without checking, I think he had a scoring record for us of approx.1 goal every other game.

Before the recent silly law change, the referee was part of the field of play and the ball hitting them was essentially the same as it hitting the frame of the goal.


Batch, Crombie, Moore K, Wiggington, Cumming, Waters, Bonnyman, Ford, Emson, Drinkell, Whymark. Love you all, You are the reason I'm on here. You've had help from Todd, Handyside, Futcher P, Groves, Mendonca, Macca etc etc etc. Up The Mariners!!!!!!!!!
