Carey 6 Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 (edited) Reid at Man City was probs the best I’ve ever felt as a City fan. I couldn’t believe we were beating the best in England 1-0. Tomlin at Fulham. Agard to make it 2-1 at West Brom in the FA cup was class, some of the best limbs I’ve been a part of that day. McCombe away at Doncaster was great. & Chris Wood penalty away at Forest. Only had about 200 of us there, under the cosh most of the game, Carey & Gerken heroics saving us & somehow came away with a win.

Swede Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 1) Roberts v Hartlepool h 2) Thorpe v sags h 3) Goater v Watford a 4) Sproule v Leicester a 5) Maynard v QPR a Roberts' goal in the play off semi final still makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand out. Aaron Brown's run and pin point pass to one of the best strikers we've ever had, perfect. Top of the table clash with 4,000 City fans there. Doherty passes to the Goat who dinks it over the keeper and we're all celebrating long before the ball hits the net. Sproule dances his way past three defenders to score. The ball is crossed in to Maynard who, in a split second, flicks it up and volleys it in. I could've mentioned Hunter's free kick and flying boot v Everton(?) Or Bent v Swindon a, or Wilkshire's lob from the half way line, a few Jet or Lee Trundle goals, Reid v Man City a or Wilbs v Swindon There are loads of others but these are the ones that really stick in my mind.

Grimsby: Andy Cole got a cracking goal for us there. Long ball (maybe from the keeper) over his shoulder and first time volley into the net - at the end where we were standing. Notts Co: JET - the first time we saw his amazing penalty technique, and in the last few minutes to equalise (or win - can’t recall which, but it mattered!).

Midlands Robin Posted February 21, 2022 Share Posted February 21, 2022 I'm absolutely useless remembering these things even when I was there but, some that spring to mind are: 1) Tony Thorpe v the sags. 3-2 Christmas Eve game? Pin point cross from Aaron Brown streaking down the left wing. 2) Smith v Man Utd. What a feeling when that went in. Superb ball over the top from Taylor. 3) Brian Tinnion v Wrexham.? I'm sure this was against Wrexham and I think it was Peter Beadle who rolled the ball back but it was a hell of a free kick. The ball was chipped up and Tins cracked it over the wall and straight in.

SuperDziek Posted February 21, 2022 Share Posted February 21, 2022 McCombe at Doncaster for a vital 1-0 win in 2006 followed not long after by Orr at Carlisle. Think it secured a 3-1 win on a day we could have been promoted, and John Ruddy played in goal having been signed on loan 24 hours earlier. Absolute beauty of a goal curled in with his leg peg from the corner of the box I think to secure the win Goater at Watford. Shocking first touch from the half way line that was actually perfect as he ended up drawing the keeper out and slotted it past him Caulker at QPR. Equaliser in added on time in front of a packed away end. And more obscurely, a Grant Smith thunderbolt to win 1-0 at the Gas in a pre-season friendly!
