  1. [quote user="jas the barclay king"]I have never scored in a competitive game sadly!best has come at school though... I got the ball and took a touch so the ball looped in front of me, as it came down I lifted it over the keeper from about 35 yards..... you could pass me a ball 1 million times and i''d never be able to do it again!i dont score goals... so everyone was sweet!Also scored a Marco Van Basten (vs russia) at the park with my mates once...[/quote]quality :)

    [quote user="pieman"]I''ve scored 400+ Sunday league goals, including some absolute belters but my favourite was from about 6 yards. We were 2-1 down at home against the league leaders, last game of the season and we had to win to take the division. 5 minutes to go we equalised, they were still quite relaxed as we had to win. 2 minutes left, cross came in from the right, I edged ahead of the defender and flicked it past the stranded keeper in to the bottom corner. Cue title in the bag and absolutely insane celebrations. Those were the days ![/quote]

     

    Nice. Very nice. Its good to have a goal in this list that wasn''t spectacular per se, but meant so much more due to context. Were your opponents on their knees punching the floor Sammy Kuffour style (Man utd 2 in injury time - Bayern 1) ?

    [/quote]They were utterly gutted. Particularly nice as their CB had spent the entire game telling me how crap I was! Pretty sure I celebrated that one with a "Gazza" dentist chair routine .....

  4. I had a couple of pints in Old Orleans before the game, and there were quite a few Leeds fans in there. TBH it was fairly good natured, but a bit irritating with their WACCOE song going on and on. I had a chat to one of their guys at the bar and he was a decent chap, no bother at all. I play footy with a couple of guys who work at the club, and the announcement in the away section was that Leeds fans were being kept back after the final whistle "for their own safety". As another poster has said, I believe they forced their way out of the ground, there just wasn''t enough of a police presence to stop them.

  5. [quote user="Realistic Canary"]He resembled a very average pub player in the JPT game v Brentford. Not one of Gunny''s best aquisitions I fear...[/quote]

    There is actually an explanation as to why he was so poor against Brentford. It''s not a good reason mind you......

  6. [quote user="Canary_on_the Trent"]I was just thinking about all the youngsters that came through around 96/97 from the same u18''s side. Darren Kenton Che Wilson Adrian Forbes Chris Llewellyn Craig Bellamy Adrian Coote Drewe Broughton all made their first team debuts within a few months of 1 another, could be similar this coming season, strange how their respective careers turned out. We all knew Bellamy would make it at the top level, whilst most of the others only made it in the lower leagues[/quote]

     

    I met Adrian Coote on holiday in Florida when he was playing for Colchester. He was smoking like a trooper, and out on the beer every day. It''s amazing how he didn''t make it.
