In an attempt to detract from what is an utterly abhorrent current situation, thought I'd start a nostalgic happy thread instead.

One rule, you're not allowed to pick Houchen or Huckerby's goals.

For me it's Willo's 30 yarder against Newcastle (99-00), came out of nowhere. I just remember sitting with my Dad and instead of celebrating he just shook his head and said "Nah, that didn't happen. That was Willo."

Feel free to post videos etc

Let's cheer up a bit eh lads. Leave all anger and frustration with current situation for another of the countless thread you can vent in.

Another one I loved was Zuniga's against Bradford I think. This little Peruvian came on with 20 minutes to go, worked his nuts off and got kicked from pillar to post.

He somehow bundled his way though on goal at 3-0 up and had a shot blocked ... followed it up with a volley and everyone went mental. I was so happy for him, ha ha ha.

Gary McAllister, vs Derby. Stood right behind it on the West Terrace. Not necessarily important or vital, but the sheer technique required for that level of finish is astounding.
Might have cried a bit in the minutes after.

Leaving out the cup final mine is Tommy Hutchison's amazing solo dribble at Arsenal 1972/73 time, a 2-0 win against reigning champions Arsenal. Was surrounded by Glasgow Rangers fans in the Clock end supporting City, that's another story.

Wasn't a stunning goal (and was most likely offside) but in terms of pure emotion, Leon Clarke v PNE in the then JPT area semi final.

Banik Ostrava, yep a great and surprising goal.

One of the most memorable for me was David Thompsons 89th winner in a 4:3 win over Man City. Not the best goal, but such an exciting finish to good game.

It's the first one in this link, it includes some great strikes from him, nearly all I had scandalously forgotten about.

Loved that goal. The keeper that night for Banik was Pavel Srnicek of Newcastle fame. Favourite in league was either David Thompson vs Man City or Robbie Keane vs Arsenal.

I've looked for it before but couldn't find it, but it looks like his son has now posted it. Not a volley though.

Noel Whelan at home. I can't remember who we played but he took the ball on the left of midfield and just danced his way through to score. I want to say it was Norwich but I have no idea.

That Adebola goal against Blackburn will always be a favourite, he batters them like he's a kid from year 6 joining the infant game at lunchtime

This one. Boateng daisy-cuttered it, Bosnich parried it, Moldovan hooked his left peg at it from 5 yards and Bosnich still got a hand on it.

Who cares, that was our day, and the noise level when that goal went in was something I'd never experienced before or since. The ref tried his best to get Villa an equaliser, adding 10 minutes of mystery injury time, but those scumbags still couldn't get through our defense.

What a day, what a memory. The train ride home, carriage full of gleeful City fans, was a treasure to me.

One thing SISU can't take away from us, is our memories of greater times.

Southampton it was, mate. He went through them in slow-motion, what a goal.

That was a stunning goal, IRC the rangers fans were there to support Colin Stein.
