Best goal ever scored against us?

[dennishasdoneit]

Yes, quite a few fans ended up in The freezing River Trent from both sides.

That's what I've heard from quire a few Blues
Forest went onto to the infamous st James Park pitch invasion.....and still feel cheated the replay wasn't at their ground..they were leading when the Geordies got the match abandoned.
Staying on topic ..the Nigel clough cheeky back heel flick at Dibble s near post in front of the North Stand was a pretty smart finish against us..back in our dark days.

There has NEVER been a good goal scored against us!!!

 

[I'm With Stupid]

I've just asked the BBC and you're all wrong. Apparently it's that time that Rooney shinned it into the top corner and everyone pretends like it was a clean strike with great technique.

On a serious note, none of them. As far as I'm concerned, they've all been flukes.

Beardsley at St James’
Villa cup final
Saunders at Derby
Christ there’s loads

Controversial choice, but Hughes’ volley in the 5-1 in ‘89 was a superb piece of athleticism. Incredible technique.

 

[blueju]

Henry’s 3rd goal in the 1-5 drubbing

Yeah I was more or less behind him as he hit it, what a clean strike. Felt sorry for Dunny that day

I'll go for Duncan McKenzie's at Nottingham Forest in the FA cup 4th round in January 1974, when we lost 4-1.

What a player he was .

Col Nelson for York City in a league game

Was about to mention the Saunders one.

We beat Watford 3-1 in a league cup game at home when we were in the old money second division, their goal being a consolation, that was a 25 yarder catching the underside of the crossbar at the Platt Lane end.

He dribbled past virtually the entire City defence before slotting home. Shortly afterwards he signed for Leeds.

Shreks overhead kick at the swamp wasn't bad either.

Too obvious to catch folks with that particular Clarkie........

Controversial choice, but Hughes’ volley in the 5-1 in ‘89 was a superb piece of athleticism. Incredible technique.

And to be fair, Fletcher's goal in the sick swan........

To be fair to Hart, not in his wildest dreams could he have expected him to do that :-)

Indirect free kick for foot-up, dangerous play, ditto Rooney's shinner

Tueart's was fine obviously

Huddlestone's half volley was a good strike

 

[bluemc1]

Anyone remember Batty scoring a screamer from about 30 yards against us ? Think he hadn’t scored for 2 years before that

 

[its a Barm]

I erase every goal against us at the end of every game, so on this one I have no idea.

 

[Blue Feather]

Cyrille Regis's solo goal for West Brom at Maine Rd in the late 70s, good enough for a spontaneous round of applause from the City fans.

That's class, made a difference to the booing he got from that other lot who of course never did that sort of thing (u*d myth Number 49)

 

[tolmie's hairdoo]

Dean Saunders for Derby against us at the Baseball ground.

I was behind (Shilton's goal?) at the City end. He launched it and Saunders hit a first time volley as it came over his shoulder from about 35 yards. Coton didn't move and we we're all like 'What the fuck?)

Peter Beagrie also scored a great scissor goal against us at Goodison Park I vaguely remember?

Tony Daley, also, one season at the Holte End.

 

[Blue Feather]

Townsend and Macken as already mentioned immediately spring to mind....the Portsmouth guy (Mendes?) scored 2 good uns in 1 x game....those were the days !!!

 

[shemnel]

i'll put forward another shout for Townsend's last season, a remarkable hit, once in a lifetime connection

 

[Shaelumstash]

Hamann’s volley at Anfield sticks in my head for goals I’ve been there for.

Funny you should mention that Beagrie one. I was looking for that one on You Tube yesterday but all I could find was this one scored by Sheedy which in memory was very similar to the PB one

Im pretty sure that there’s another goal by Beagrie scores against from the corner of the box?
