City ruining the expectations of goalkeepers since 1900
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6t8MBdrO5ws&feature=fvw[/youtube] He's the guy who's scored the most goals as a goalkeeper, just saw his name on the page and thought I'd have a look. To be fair, many are penalties and some of the keepers in the Brazilian league are shite, but decent effort!

It will come as no great surprise that the earliest examples of goal-scoring keepers originate from the birthplace of football, the British Isles. The first such feat is credited to one Charlie Williams of Manchester City who, in April 1900, dispatched a clearance directly into Sunderland's goal. Ten years later, the goalkeepers of Scottish outfits Third Lanark and Motherwell offered an original variation by contributing a goal apiece in the same game.

It should be pointed out that, back then, goalkeepers were permitted to pick the ball up anywhere on the field, a rule which these two protagonists made full use of. In the light of this encounter, the football authorities of the day amended the rules the following year, thereafter prohibiting goalkeepers from handling the ball outside their penalty area
