First time I have seen this view. Endorses what I thought at the game that there was a split second before people realised it was a goal, nobody moved behind the goal untill they realised the net was bulging, nobody expected Vinnie to score, even his teammates especially Kun who shouted, 'don't shoot Vinnie don't shoot. The tension that night was unforgettable as we went looking for that goal and Leicester were in no mood other than to stop us winning. They got what they deserved that game, nothing, and we got what we deserved that game and season.

And many thanks to agent Kelechi for his subsequent contribution to the cause

Great goal, great moment.


That's one thing I like about Marmoush, he enjoys having a crack from distance too, rather than just thinking we should walk it in. Keeps defenders and keepers guessing.

Oh and how could I forget to congratulate Kelly on failing to burst into tears in the radio studio

Brilliant.

That cheered me up as just three days earlier I’d turned 60, my Mum had passed a couple of months prior so my birthday celebrations were muted, I’d not had a drink since February but had a bottle of wine when I got home and rewatched the game.

Special, special player

Step daughter had a baby a few weeks before then and was asleep - I was watching via the lap top in the kitchen and gave out the loudest yell ever from my lungs for a City goal - I too had semi shouted “don’t shoot” before freaking out as the step daughter thanked me for waking the baby up!

I was right behind it at the other end. Watched that little beauty all the way. There was no split second just absolute carnage.

it's the people in the background, leaving and walking up the steps that gets me

I will always say on his day he was the best player to ever player for us.

The state of slab head.

Remarkable that other teams' fans haven't moaned about this more, it was easier for him to score and he belted it high & wide.

I am in 109 near the front and the angle we had of it was even more directly behind than this. I am a FOC now but in my memory it replays in even slower slow motion than the clip.

A thing of beauty

 

[ooh vonky vonky]

The guy in the grey coat sure picked his time to go for a piss

Havent got Sky Sports then? Dont blame you really. But they show this in slow motion all the time.
Guy exiting behind goal past Moonchester just as the ball hits the back of the net always makes me smile. Talk about poor timing.

Her face was an absolute picture of pain, disbelief and total peedoffness. Dislike her intensely. And as for her father...

Tell me about that. What's the story? (Saw the game on French tv, so don't know anything about that backstory).

I thought it was Pep who shouted out 'dont shoot Vinny?'
