Oh yes, City fans sucked that one in from behind the goal

Mine was Eyal Berkovic think was against Norwich . Ran full length of pitch slaloming between defenders and just before he ran out of steam, knocked it in the net . Quality

Roger Palmer volley against Wolves in a 3-1 win mid 70's. First City game I ever went to, my dad took me and I still remember it clear as day now. He was outside the area and hit it beautifully, (Roger, not my dad!)

I had a vision of this happening as the corner was about to be taken. I was about to shout "WATCH THE RUNNER!" but as I was 16 at the time I feared the back lash so said nothing and watched Lomas run and bury the ball into the back of the City net. As a result I no longer refrain from shouting at a football match.

Manchester City 1-2 West Ham United
FA Cup fourth round
Sunday 25 January 1998

Harry Redknapp's West Ham avoided a potential cup upset at Maine Road, against a Manchester City side then battling against relegation to the third tier.

Though Eyal Berkovic put the Hammers in front, Georgi Kinkladze's brilliant individual effort put the skids under the visitors.

The Georgian midfielder slalomed through West Ham's rearguard, before beating Craig Forrest, via the inside of the far post. It might have got a whole lot worse, but Uwe Rosler skied his spot-kick over the bar, after Steve Potts had been penalised.

With the tie in the balance, it swung decisively in the Hammers' favour with quarter-of-an-hour to play, when former City employee Steve Lomas fired hard and low through a crowded penalty area to send West Ham into the last 16.

Super Frank Lampard. I've printed this page as proof and I expect my cheque in the post or I'll see you in court. ;-)

Has anyone seen Matty borough's backheel goal vs portadown?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VvRvlYZdyuo

One of the best backheel goals I have seen.

 

[mayo31]

Loads - but best headed goal that sticks out was Dave Watsons header v Ipswich - circa 76/77

Mick McCarthy v the rags was a great header

Hinchcliffes was also great

Robinho v Arsenal was good, the chip

The best though for me was Kinky v Southampton

Jim Melrose v Notts County

Without a doubt this one,a real shame there was no tv coverage,
