Peter Bodak. V Watford . League Cup Quarter final replay at Highfield Road. Cuts inside from the right wing to unleash a beast of a shot. We were on the march.

Ernie Hunts Volley set up by Willie Carr (The Donkey Kick)

Boateng's run for Moldovan's goal was sublime.

Don Hutchison against Plymouth stands out for me. Great awareness to turn like that. Skip to 1.25 here -

Definitely Adebola's goal away to Blackburn in the FA cup!

Does anyone remember a mid week game, sure it was against Luton, where Cyril picked the ball up on half way and beat about 5 men before firing it home.

One that stands out for me was a Fox curler against Norwich away

Banik Ostrava?

Cyrille Regis 86-87 v Spurs 4-3. Rebound off the bar and header into the net in the last minute.

dadgad · Jan 28, 2017

Micky Gynn's at Stoke in 87.
I knew then the Cup was ours.
Those were the matches we always crumbled in, when we fell away.
A glorious moment when you knew we'd turned a corner.

Moussa's 30 yard volley in the 96th minute at Deepdale takes some beating. Went with son no. 2 who lives just outside Preston and he was able to give it large to his PNE supporting mates after years of misery up there for us. We were stood bang in line with the ball and saw it all the way in. Was only the equaliser but the timing made it feel like a victory.

Peter ndlovu goal v WBA away in the cup knocked the stuffing out of them

Yep a cracker.....so many...ah good days

Gazolba · Jan 29, 2017

I'm sure most of you never saw it but it was the goal George Hudson scored against Southampton. Can't remember the date or season.
No other striker we've ever had comes close in goal-scoring skill.
I never saw it live but the Michael Mifsud goal against Sheffield Wednesday was a brilliant individual goal (last goal on this video, about 4:05):

ovduk78 · Jan 29, 2017

3 of my favourites are

Huckerby vs Man Utd for the run, the block by Whelan and the comments by Ferguson after that we'd never looked like scoring despite winning 3-2.
Quinn's second against Arsenal at Highbury, I think Wegerle had it,moved away for Quinn who came in and curled it into top corner.
Whelan against Wimbledon at Selhurst Park in November 96, fantastic volley from an angle.

This thread was supposed to cheer us up but it's making it worse highlighting how shite we now are and how rubbish the players are.

Nick · Jan 29, 2017

Does Leon Clarke in the JPT count for excitement?

Old Warwickshire lad · Jan 29, 2017

Ernie Hunt volley on a cold Tues night( I think )at WBA .35 yards out. Was on it's way back out off the stanchion
whilst keeper was still diving. Probably nothing like that,but after this many years lol.

covcity4life · Jan 29, 2017

Best goal for opposition prob teddy sherringham chip in a 3-2 loss iirc

Best goal prob robbie keane vs arsenal

davebart · Jan 29, 2017

Ian Gibson v Wolves 1967 - I bet there's no video of that.

CJ_covblaze · Jan 29, 2017

Great Chippo ball out to Keane on the left wing, inch perfect cross into the box, bullet header from Roussel. When we beat the Villa 2-1.

Best opposition goal I've seen was probably Suker's when we beat Arsenal. The last 20th century goal at Highfield Road.

The problem is we cannot get attached to players. It is a different team every year. No More Heroes.

Was that the one at the Spion Kop end where Hudson had his back to goal, flicked the ball over his shoulder and over the defender, turned and hammered it into the net? Whoever it was against, it's one of my favourites.

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.

That was mine too. We were stood in the paddock opposite the main stand that day and had a great view of it. It was actually Hutch's first goal for City IIRC.

The tragedy is that the goal was recorded but is never shown. At that time BBC2 showed a few highlights on the news of a game that was not on MOTD, and it was Highbury that day. People have tried to get the right to show it again but they want silly money for it, apparently.

Most certainly!

Houchens Head · Jan 29, 2017

Mine would obviously be "Houchen's Header"! Wembley 1987! But one goal I'll always love for the pure cheek and clever thinking was Dion Dublin's cheeky goal when momentum carried him behind the goal line, Shay Given put the ball at his feet ready to kick out, and Dion came from behind, nicked the balled away and tapped it in! A bit of questioning between the ref and lino before it was given as a goal. Happy days!

I haven't checked this yet, but is it among this lot maybe?? 1972-73 season - YouTube

Robbie Keane V Arsenal. Still not sure how he managed it. Magical stuff.
