Quoted from arryarryarry


You can score direct from a goal kick in the oppositions goal but funnily enough you cannot score an own goal

Law 16
A goal may be scored directly from a goal kick, but only against the opposing team; if the ball directly enters the kicker’s goal a corner kick is awarded to the opponents if the ball left the penalty area.


This is true now but not when the Town game was played. From Wiki -


In 1890, it was forbidden to score a goal directly from a goal-kick.[20] In 1997, the laws were amended to allow a goal to be scored directly from a goal-kick, but only against the opposing team.[25][34][35] The first goalkeeper to score directly from a goal kick in a professional match is said to have been Iñigo Arteaga, for Racing Ferrol against Moralo, on 2 November 1997.[36]



“If all mankind minus one, were of one opinion, and only one person were of the contrary opinion, mankind would be no more justified in silencing that one person, than he, if he had the power, would be justified in silencing mankind.”
― John Stuart Mill, On Liberty."

Cheltenham’s Jonny Rocks Stadium apparently has a pitch length of 111 yards (105 mtrs) minus 6 yards for the goal area = 105 yards ( 96 mtrs)
The world record for longest goal is Begovic with 100 yards (92 mtrs) for Stoke v Southampton 2013. So this King goal should be a new world record!
All according to Google. Sorry, lockdown anorak half hour😜😎

Quoted from Poojah


I was late to BP that day. Literally took my seat, and then that happened. I don't think anyone in the ground saw a shot coming, with the exception of Conor Townsend. Mercurial.


I realise it’s easy to say after the event, but when I saw the goalkeepers position at the time I thought take the shot to the near post. Never thought he would actually try it mind.

Sort of...

Mark oxley, a young keeper who we briefly had in loan from hull, scored for Hibs.

That's as close as I can get.....
