For me... the best City goal I've EVER seen!

Goater goal was away at Gillingham a few short weeks before we played them at Wemberlee
I remember thinking on the day of the final: 'This should be quite straightforward, we pissed all over them at theirs a few weeks back'

I really should have known better!


no it wasnt ... the goater goal was in the kk promotion season. we drew 0-0 with gillingham in the year we played them at wemberlee

No it wasn't, it was 3 years later!
 
Yep , it's all about personal choice , and there's no doubt that Goaters goal in that Gillingham clip had a touch of genuis about it , both in it's build up , and its execution.

But for me the most stunning City goal ever was Jim Melroses unbelievable volley from around the halfway line against Notts County at Maine Road in the mid-eighties ..... i can find no trace of it on youtube .... but take it from me it WAS special!

Mine too, looked all over for a clip myself but never found one, was stood in the corner of the kippax ( what ended up the Gene Kelly) and watched it sail in, class goal.

Re the clip, what I love about it most is that Ali didn`t just back-heel it, it was like he flicked it up with his heel, superb stuff.
