Worst Ever Saints Kick?


Saint Charlie

After Jos Hooiveld's oafish kick of thin air against Newcastle on Sunday it made me wonder what our worst kick of all time has been?

 

Jos has a couple of other shouts with uncoordinated kicks vs Fulham last year and also brainless kicks on Van Persie and Tevez last season but they probably aren't the worst ever.

 

Prutton's kick against West Brom the year we went down was poor, but what would you say is the worst Saints kick ever?

Dave Beasant vs Liverpool. Runs out his area to get ball, controls it then kicks straight to John Barnes in the middle of the pitch. Barnes hits it towards goal with Beasant running back to the goal can not get there in time. I remember this like yesterday.

That was awful but Gazza's was worse because the kick hardly got out the area.

 

Gobern's kick was quality.

when he came out of his area to the right hand wing and hoofed it straight to the opposition, who then promptly put it back in the empty net

 

I think you mean this one.

Crouch where he shot instead of kicking the ball into the corner against Everton in the relegation season

 

You're on my wave length with kicks that changed our history, Nick.

After that Crouch one we seemed incapable of holding a lead once the extra time board went up, and Leon's penalty meant Lowe's two year plan to get back up had failed.

Leon Best own goal at Derby has to be up there...

 

I still don't know how it was even physically possible for him to score the way he did!

 

Good shout. If it had been scored for us instead of against, it would have been goal of the month. That combined with the penalty miss means that Best probably cost us promotion that season.

The worse kick followed hot on the heels of probably the best kick I’ve ever witnessed – it was the kick in the teeth when Keegan’s fantastic overhead scissors kick ‘goal’ was ruled out because Armstrong (I think it was) was offside, even though there was absolutely no way he was interfering with play! :x

Barnes wasn't it? Against Liverpool.

 

This is the worst kick I have seen for sure.

 

That or Boruc's attempts vs the Arse this season.

For once Grobbelaar was innocent.
