Colinjb Posted 3 July, 2015 Share Posted 3 July, 2015 (edited) When the 3rd one went in against Coventry in the last game of the 2011-2012 season (and to my shame I can't actually remember who scored it!) to put us out of sight and seal our promotion back to the PL, I screamed the house down and cried. My other half says she has never seen me display so much emotion in all the years we have been together. Jos Hooiveld. In fairness, all of the goals in that game could apply to this thread for me. Some other personal favourites: McGoldrick at Preston North End (2-3) Guly at Coventry (2-4, That was quite specific to me, finally beating the Sky blues in their own back yard after years of the locals comments) Lambert v Huddersfield (4-1, He was having a bit of a crap spell, but that strike on the turn was excellent! And against my then bosses side.) Edited 3 July, 2015 by Colinjb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bucks Saint Posted 3 July, 2015 Share Posted 3 July, 2015 Bolton? I was standing behind the net for that one. My son left home late because of a stupid woman, got locked out of the ground and missed it. Yes, Bolton i think. Didnt it go to extra time because of that goal, and he promptly went and did it again? Might be wrong! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StDunko Posted 3 July, 2015 Share Posted 3 July, 2015 This one brought tears to my eyes. My other was the shot by Barry Horne from about 3 miles out in the cup in the last minute. Forget who it was against. Bolton HTH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcjwills Posted 3 July, 2015 Share Posted 3 July, 2015 Stokes in 76, Ruddock penalty, was needed to stop a long goal drought and of course Matt against Arsenal.

Bad Wolf Posted 3 July, 2015 Share Posted 3 July, 2015 The first one against Coventry. Adam Lallana had the shot and then Billy Sharp flicked it in (or vice versa). I knew, going into the game that as soon as we scored one, all the nerves around the stadium would disappear and we'd go on and score tons. As soon as that shot hit the net, I just thought "THAT'S IT! WE'RE GOING UP!". Getting goosebumps just thinking about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lighthouse Posted 3 July, 2015 Share Posted 3 July, 2015 From games I've been to; Lambert at Fratton probably just about edges it although it's up against some pretty stiff competition. Waigo's equaliser with the last kick of the game in the JPT against Norwich is up there too. Osvaldo against City last year got a good noise. Skacel against Birmingham in 2006 (3rd goal in 6 minutes, was pretty special until Mane came along). Lambert's 3rd at Millwall, penalty in injury time to win it. The one I wish I'd been at. That much noise from a relatively small, uncovered stand is just crazy. Everyone who was there said it was mental Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The9 Posted 3 July, 2015 Share Posted 3 July, 2015 (edited) Lambert's goal away to city first game back in the Premier League against the champions, he had just come on off the bench for his first top flight game and scores! Very emotional! Ooh, good shout with the Lambert goal, that was us realising we weren't as awful as we thought we might be in the Prem (shortly followed by losing at home to Wigan... ). In terms of "amount of time celebrating a goal", I'm fairly sure all the goals against Coventry, which led to a dancing-on-the-tables-downing-champagne party at Varsity, a completely blatted trivia machine win at 11pm in the Winston, and a subsequent Promotion Party BBQ at our nearby flat when it chucked it down all day but still went on until about 4am when we finally drank every drop of alcohol left in the flat, mostly in one glass, was probably the longest pure celebration time... In my head it also lasted pretty much until the moment above. Oh yeah, and scrolling up, Fonte against Brighton, that was abso-fudgeking-lutely fan-bloody-tastic after all their tossing around with the music choices before kick off, narkiness about Adkins in the official programme, time-wasting, ball-boy removal, the absolute hatred for Adkins from every corner of that bloody awful ground, plus the last minute nature of the goal, the players running a small marathon just to get to the away fans, and... well, yeah, getting hammered for the next God knows how many hours in various pubs in Brighton too.

View From The Top Posted 3 July, 2015 Share Posted 3 July, 2015 Aside from some of those mentioned above I'll add Steven Davis putting us 2-1 up at the Etihad in our first game back in the Premier League. It was more than the goal, it was a celebration for everything we'd been through since being relegated under Redknapp. I've never seen so many Saints fans with massive grins on their faces. There was utter disbelief that our team, largely made of players who had been with us since League 1, had come from behind to lead against the richest team in the country. My heart was racing to the point that if we had scored again it might have finished me off. It was utter carnage and a very cathartic experience.

The Cat Posted 3 July, 2015 Share Posted 3 July, 2015 Yeah the Fonte goal at Brighton is a good shout. Most amusing to see their fans trying to look all moody in the car park after having been pathetically laying into Adkins 10 minutes before. Have to admit I didn't get that excited about the goals against Coventry. While it was good, it was also obvious we were going up and I was still slightly miffed we'd blown the chance to win the title at Middlesbrough the week before.

View From The Top Posted 3 July, 2015 Share Posted 3 July, 2015 I think the Brighton goal is the most mental I've ever gone whilst watching Soccer Saturday or listening to Solent. Nipper and I went batsh1t mental and as we were BBQing at the time the whole of Stafford heard us. My Wolves supporting neighbour popped his head over the fence, simply gave us a big grin and the thumbs up and left me to be bollo_cked by the Mrs for being too loud.
