Turkish Posted 21 February, 2011 Posted 21 February, 2011 We done for Saints what about against. There have been plenty but one that sticks out out in my memory, because it was when i first started going on the Milton with my mates and i thought he was a brilliant player was kevin Sheedy for Everton in a 1-1 draw at the Dell c1990. It's on here 2 minutes 30.
The9 Posted 21 February, 2011 Posted 21 February, 2011 Scott Parker's one for Charlton that went right in the top corner and Niemi didn't bother to move.
Right sider Posted 21 February, 2011 Posted 21 February, 2011 Didn't Leeds score in 1971 after about 30 passes. Was absolute quality.

kwsaint Posted 21 February, 2011 Posted 21 February, 2011 Cantona chipping Tim Flowers from the corner of the penalty box. Early nineties. United won 3-1. He was class. Sat next to my United supporting brother-in-law. He had the good sense to keep quiet.
bpsaint Posted 21 February, 2011 Posted 21 February, 2011 (edited) Remember Mark Venus and Tudgay scoring stunning top corner screamers for Ipswich and Blackburn respectively when we first moved to St Mary's. Was at Highbury when we got butt-raped 6-1 just before the cup final in '03, couldnt help but applaud Pires' 35 yard curled lob. Edited 21 February, 2011 by bpsaint
Dog Posted 21 February, 2011 Posted 21 February, 2011 Fash the Bash drilling it in from 30yds @ 10mph against Grobb.
Appy Posted 21 February, 2011 Posted 21 February, 2011 Brizzle Rovers winner last year at SMS was very good.
Nexstar Posted 21 February, 2011 Posted 21 February, 2011 Didn't a Gillingham player score a great goal against us when we won 4-1 at home last season?
Jonnyboy Posted 21 February, 2011 Posted 21 February, 2011 Fash the Bash drilling it in from 30yds @ 10mph against Grobb. took a bung then?
Big Bad Bob Posted 21 February, 2011 Posted 21 February, 2011 Scott Parker's one for Charlton that went right in the top corner and Niemi didn't bother to move. This....
ericofarabia Posted 21 February, 2011 Posted 21 February, 2011 Didn't actually see it, don't even know if it was a good goal and in the mists of time can't even be sure which team, let alone player !! - but I think it was Shrewsbury in The FA Cup and effectively got rid of Branfart and got us the Bally & Lawrie dream team and the rebirth of MLT.
Lets B Avenue Posted 21 February, 2011 Posted 21 February, 2011 Kinkladze for Man City at Maine Road 1996. Dribbled from the half way line past most of our team. Then dummied Beasant and chipped him when he dived early. They still went down though.
mitch01 Posted 22 February, 2011 Posted 22 February, 2011 Tugay scored a blinder in the first season at St Marys. Parker hit 2 beauties in one game back in 2004. Forlan at OT for his first goal for Utd.
stu0x Posted 22 February, 2011 Posted 22 February, 2011 I was at Old Trafford years back when United horsed us 5-1 or 6-1 (I stopped counting!), Pahars got ours after the damage had been done. When they were already 3 or 4 up, Phil Neville of all people picked the ball up well outside the box, went on a mazy run and then blasted it into the top corner. We all stood there in amazement for several seconds before a loud ironic chant of 'what the ****ing hell was that?' broke out, which he saw the funny side of. You know that when Phil Neville scores a screamer it's definitely not your day.
NorthamSteve Posted 22 February, 2011 Posted 22 February, 2011 2.20 ish Shame you cant see the camera angle from behind. It curled about a meter outside the post.
Gemmel Posted 22 February, 2011 Posted 22 February, 2011 Huckerby - I just cant remember who he was playing for at the time. It was at the Dell. I found myself clapping and getting some very strange looks in The Archers. Havings said that, if you watch some of MLT's goals, you will quite often see the other teams fans clapping his spectacular ones.
Fowllyd Posted 22 February, 2011 Posted 22 February, 2011 Dave Watson for Stoke City at the Dell, not long after he left us. Early eighties, but can't remember exactly which season it was. Watson's goal was a stunning thirty-yard volley (left foot I think) after the ball had been cleared to him. Nobody knew he could do anything like that - I doubt he did either! The match ended 4-3; we'd gone 3-0 up, they pulled it back, then Mark 'Albert' Whitlock scored the winner from a corner at the death.

Minty Posted 22 February, 2011 Posted 22 February, 2011 Huckerby - I just cant remember who he was playing for at the time. It was at the Dell. I found myself clapping and getting some very strange looks in The Archers. Coventry I believe, if it's the one where he ran down the left wing, cut in, and smashed it in from 25ish yards? Or maybe it was a volley? Anyway, pretty sure it was Coventry.
Colinjb Posted 22 February, 2011 Posted 22 February, 2011 The best I have seen in person was probably Rochdale's second earlier this season. The best I saw back in the premiership days (again in person) would have been Stephen Carr scoring for Newcastle. Hit it 30 yards out from the right hand side of the penalty area.. It rose at speed, dipped and beat Niemi into the far corner.
Minty Posted 22 February, 2011 Posted 22 February, 2011 I think an honourable mention should go to Benali for his superb diving header vs Oldham at the Dell in about 1994...
benjii Posted 22 February, 2011 Posted 22 February, 2011 I clapped the Barnsley player who tucked away two excellent free-kicks against us. I think I remember the Huckerby goal someone mentioned above, and the Kinkladze one. We must've conceded loads of good goals down the years but it's actually quite hard to pinpoint them. You tend to remember the most emotional ones rather than the quality.

jawillwill Posted 22 February, 2011 Posted 22 February, 2011 Leon Best showed sine real quality with his flick for Derby in the play-offs.

I was there for both, and I think the Carr goal was the season after but can't be sure.

teamsaint Posted 22 February, 2011 Posted 22 February, 2011 Nigel Clough scored a dream goal for forest at the Milton road end. seemed to run through the whole team, round the keeper, and rolled it into the net. Just stood there with his arms in the air, and you could hardly blame him.Celebrated in very clough like, gentlemanly style. Class. Certainly my favourite.
Deppo Posted 22 February, 2011 Posted 22 February, 2011 Whatever the best goal was, it was clearly offside.
ericofarabia Posted 22 February, 2011 Posted 22 February, 2011 Whatever the best goal was, it was clearly offside. Or Kelvin's fault!!!
bender Posted 22 February, 2011 Posted 22 February, 2011 Season 1988/89. Saints 0 Spurs 2. Chris Waddles first.
StVince1966 Posted 23 February, 2011 Posted 23 February, 2011 no goal against saints is a best goal! none whatsoever! in forty years every single goal against saints has been crap in my eyes! the other 91 clubs can just do one!
Bensfcno1 Posted 25 February, 2011 Posted 25 February, 2011 Ipswich Youth team at St Marys. Think it was a semi final of the League play-offs or FA youth cup! It was a screamer, one of my mates who is actually an Arsenal fan stood up and applauded it with some funny looks from surrounding saints fans!
Turkish Posted 25 February, 2011 Author Posted 25 February, 2011 Season 1988/89. Saints 0 Spurs 2. Chris Waddles first. was that the game when it poured with rain and the Spurs keeper should have been sent off for bring shearer down? Waddle chipped Flowers (?)
The Cat Posted 25 February, 2011 Posted 25 February, 2011 Mark Venus for Ipswich in our first season at St Mary's. Was a 30 yard screamer in a crazy 3-3 draw. Couldn't find the goal on youtube, but did stumble across footage of a 3-3 draw at the Dell against Ipswich in the early 80's. Includes a cracker from Phil Boyer, but also possibly the WORST goal we ever let in (Ipswich's 3rd which made it 3-2)
Leicestersaint Posted 25 February, 2011 Posted 25 February, 2011 Steven Williams against Norwich on 7 February 1981 at home - an absolute wonder solo goal. (Sorry - I misread the thread and thought it was best goal FOR Saints!)
View From The Top Posted 25 February, 2011 Posted 25 February, 2011 Bergkamps 1st goal for Arsenal against us at Highbury was a bit good IIRC.
sandwichsaint Posted 25 February, 2011 Posted 25 February, 2011 Agree with Venus and Tugay at SMS (the 3-3 v Ipswich was Strachan's first game and also the game where Delgado was paraded and videos shown on the big screen). Another good goal at SMS was Forest a couple of years ago, v drab 0-0 at the time, midway through the second half the ball broke to their centre-mid and without breaking stride he just clipped it fully 35 yards over the top of our CBs, over the keeper who wasn't that far off his line, and hit it so well it bounced on the line on the way in - perfect strike and totally pre-meditated - can't remember who it was though!

Joe Garner. Great strike.
NorthamSteve Posted 26 February, 2011 Posted 26 February, 2011 Joe Garner. Great strike. I clapped that in the Northam, and nearly got a punch for it.
