ShakerT Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 Had an e-mail from Charlie at Four Four two asking for Latics best goal - "we’re not after the most important or enjoyable goal – as misty-eyed as Chelsea fans may get over Didier Drogba's Champions League-winning penalty, it's hardly showreel stuff. We want this feature to be about long-range wallops, intricate team moves and startlingly violent volleys. But if you’re undecided over a selection of goals, clearly the importance of the match/opposition has to give it some extra weight when picking out a single winner" Had a chat with LaticsBiffo and come up with these Any others?? Dean Furmans v County? Cant remember a Latics goal getting nominated for anything! Gary Maccs v Everton Ian Marshalls V Notts County at Home in Premier Stitch at Southampton cup Ian Marshalls whollop at Wolves promotion season Neil Adams v Man U - any winning goal against the scum needs a mention. Nick Henry v Arsenal - Littlweoods cup (start of the pinch me season) Palmer last minute winner at Ayersome Park - promotion season Dennis Irwin - Freekick away at Goodison Sean McArtHorse - Over Schmeichel at Old Trafford Beresford - Away at Wolves - ran full length of pitch and should have crossed to 2 men unmarked square but shot from 25 yards, top corner Gary Williams - curler from wing away at Leeds Brian Kilcline at wrong end for Leeds at Elland Road - best own goal ever. Lee Richardson - First game of season on debut! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pukka Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 Rubes at Leeds was one of the best strikes I've seen. I preferred it to Gary Mac's goal a few days later. Mark Brennan in the mist vs Chelsea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4froale Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 Simon Charlton from in his own half Eyres free kick at Stockport Will never forget that goal and the pitch invasion that followed it, back in the day where we took 4500 to county, great times.

jsslatic Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 Will never forget that goal and the pitch invasion that followed it, back in the day where we took 4500 to county, great times. I think you may be about 1,000 over with that but I'll stand corrected if otherwise. Hazell's at Leeds was very very special, partly for the strike and partly for who it was!

Tommy_Fent Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 (edited) that Reuben Hazell goal at Leeds defied the laws of physics, he was leaning back. At the time I thought it was a dream, then my mate jumped on my back other noticeable ones Lourenco overhead kick vs Huddersfield Eyres Free Kick vs Plymouth Killen vs Notts County is a forgotten one, there must of been about 20 passes leading up to the goal Lee Richardson vs Charlton (both) Lee Richardson vs West Brom Lee Richardson vs Bristol City Lee Richardson vs Tranmere Lee Richardson vs Reading Lee Richardson vs Oxford Lee Richardson vs Huddersfield Edited October 4, 2012 by Tommy_Fent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldhamSheridan Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 Ritchie's backheel from around the penalty spot (Watford was it?). Ritchie's chip from by the sideline (2-0 v Barnsley I think it was). Kuqi at Dale. A couple from the telly: Adams 40 yarder @Brighton. Sheridan's free kick @ Bristol Rovers. Many of these have ten yards added, the shot velocity doubled, the opposition promoted and the skill turned into something Messi would be proud of. They were, in reality, probably two yard tap-ins.

Crusoe Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 Years ago my dad had a VHS copy of "101 Great Oldham Goals" (or something similar). At the time I reckon about 90% of them were Palmer or Ritchie tap-ins in the middle of a crowded and muddy penalty box. I loved it. Forty yard volleys? Overhead kicks? We don't go in for that kind of showy nonsense! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jsslatic Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 Kilkenny's equaliser at Doncaster in 2007/08 first round replay was an outstanding strike but IIRC was never televised due to TV rights and the fact nobody bothered to show the first round replay goals that year. Does anyone else remember being there and that goal being something pretty special? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4froale Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 talking about goals at the other end, does anybody remember that goal neil danns scored against us in the f.a cup for blackpool. Must have hit from about 35 yards if i remember correctly and pog was left stranded, must be about 7/8 years ago now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidCollinge Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 Ritchies at Brighton away late 80s / early 90s, iirc he was facing the wrong way, flicked it over his head towards goal, turned and buried it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
