Id say henry at home just the cheek to shot from so far out
missed it, i was at the bloody bar, AGAIN :angry:
I remember 2 being scored in the same game by Preston in a 3-3 draw back in 98/99ish at Springfield Park being ones that have always stuck in my mind (more so than the Henry one you’re on about)
Andy Liddell scored an 18 yard overhead kick in the same game
I think the game you’re on about against Preston at Springfield park finished 1 – 1. Liddell scored a cracking overhead but David Eyres scored an even better first time volley from the corner of the penalty area.[/quote]
My mistake, it wasn’t 3-3 it was 2-2
The David Eyres goal is probably the best i have seen.Low cross from the right at the town end and the best volley i have ever seen at any level of the game.
Seem to remember a little bit of bother after that goal from some PNE ‘infiltrators’ :angry:The David Eyres goal is probably the best i have seen.Low cross from the right at the town end and the best volley i have ever seen at any level of the game.
Seem to remember a little bit of bother after that goal from some PNE ‘infiltrators’ :angry:I had had a skin graft on my ankle the same day as that game and was in Whiston Hospital listening to that game on Radio Lancashire. The most blatant biased commentary i have ever heard (apart from Chris Waddle when we played Spurs in the FA Cup on Setanta) you wouldnt have thought that Wigan used to be a part of Lancashire and most people still write it on their Address.
Steven Reid for Blackburn sticks out, In fact all 3 Blackburn’s goals that day were terrific. Seem to remember Mark Stallard scoring for Notts County in the last minute to end Filan’s clean sheet run. We won about 7-1 or something daft and he went potty as it was the first one let in in about 7 games. But if i remember rightly it was a peach.That and any goal by Andy Liddell
It made it 3-1 and along with Filan going potty there was a few of us in the South Stand going potty, only because we had got Dinning and 3-1 on the coupon.
Sorry to bump this thread but haven’t been able to sign in for a bit and i wanted to add my comment!
I would go for Canvey Island, I may be wrong here (and probably am!) but this in my mind sticks out as the low point before we completely powered up the old 2nd Div. and got to where we are now…
Maybe not a great goal in itself, but it sparked everything that’s happened since…
In my memory anyway!
I recall Graham Kavanagh (yes, the same) once scoring an absolute cracker at the Shevvy end for Stoke. He ran and ran with the ball, before firing a rocket as straight as an arrow right into the top corner. Think it was about 1998.

Yes, I think that was the game. Greg Strong….I’d forgot all about him. We’ve moved on a bit since those days, haven’t we? He must be one of the worst players ever to wear our shirt. When you look at the few youth players that came through the system from the late 80’s and into the 90’s, it’s a travesty that the youth coaching staff actually got paid. Apart from Peter Atherton and Joe Parkinson, the rest just weren’t good enough.

There were plenty worse than Greg Strong just in that team alone never mind ever.
BTW he’s still plying his trade in football & is currently manager of Rhyl
