How come we never score important injury time games?

Agreed.
It's obviously something that is drilled into the rags. Even when they don't need late goals they still push on and go for it. Look at Hull the other week, was it 3 goals in last 10 mins. Remember tranny having a strop last year when he was subbed because he knows he's got more chance of scoring late on. We're not the only ones who don't tend to score late ones on a regular basis. I'd say most of the Prem are the same and it's such an obvious tactic of the rags that it's about time we and others stopped the b*****ds or adopted the same approach.

We used to get loads of last minute winners in the eighties , around the time that Duncan Davidson was here ..... but these days we seem to get very few.

Bloody hell, there's a player I'd forgotten about. Wasn't it him that had the shot against Swansea when big Joe was in goal - hit the post and went in off the back of Joe's head. Was it him ?

Robinho vs blackburn away last season is the one that jumps to mind, even though it only did give us the draw
but i agree, we are shit at scoring late goals

Tony Vaughan v Bradford, Goater v Coventry, Macken v Spurs, Anelka and Macken v Leicester, Creaney v Charlton, Sommeil v Pompey, Ireland v Reading, Anelka at Anfield, Anelka at Ewood (to go top).
We do score last min goals, or even last kick and head goals.
Some good 'uns in there. Remember Vaughan's at Umbro/Platt Lane end from a corner

That was with about 20 mins left, the Superman one, volley straight at Gordon through his legs.
