Hey! Wasn't that a great goal by CKR?

[brighton2win]

Oh for fcuk sakes.

I am not explaining myself again.

I DIDN'T want to leave early but I had no choice.

Jesus children.

just because people were talking about early leavers doesnt mean they are speaking of you imperticularly, im quite sure they dont care and dont want to read the same reason for u leaving 5 times in 1 thread

One junction to 10, turned off on M329 to Bracknell and picked up the M3 to M25. Cuts off a huge corner.

That is the way the RAC route finder always says to go. Never around the M25 to M4 Junction.

Depending on time of day or night I sometimes go M25 all the way simply because I am on that road and it is easy to keep going at speed.

You've only got to watch CKR in the warm-up to see he's got real scoring talent.

He hammers them in from all angles, right into the corners.

 

[ManOnTheRun]

Who else has scored an Albion header from that distance ever?

Stuart Munday in a 3-2 home win against Southend (I think!), sometime in the early 90's ...

In front of the North Stand, almost on the 18 yd line, bosh ...

I'd say it was a good 4-5 yds further out than CKR's against Cardiff.

 

[London Irish]

CKR isn't perfect, and you can throw stats around all you like, but what alternative do we have? He's clearly our second-best striker.

On the contrary, he's clearly our best striker juding by ratio of goals to time on the pitch

 

[London Irish]

CKR should have started. He is by far the most promisng player we have had in years. If MAGOO wants a target man he should open his eyes to the excellent job today by CKR. Brillant in the air and close control.

Thing is, CKR has had a few starts and his form has been inconsistent at best, even more so than Leon Knight's.

A Knight-CKR partnership seems the obvious one and they are probably our best two strikers. But they both have this natural languidness about their play that doesn't bode well for putting opposition defences under presssure. Our kind of limited team does need to disrupt the opposition's tempo as much as possible, and that's why Jake has often made the starting line-up because of his far superior movement and workrate.

 

[Uncle Buck]

I missed it, as I had my back to the pitch as we were folding the flag up at the time.

That would be this :-

1992-02-29 Sat. FL D2 (h) W 3-2 1-1 R.Meade, R.Codner,
S.Munday 8271 Southend United


I'll see if I can dig it out.

And, before anyone asks, I went to Brugges yesterday so don't have the goal from Saturday

 

[Simon Morgan]

i wasn't there but i hear his other chance was a good one. i wish he scored that one too, would have done wonders for his confidence and made the score a bit more respectable

 

[The Great Cornholio]

Here is the Stuart Munday goal - his home league debut apparently.

Was that the game with the sit in afterwards?

Was that the game with the sit in afterwards?

It was the BISA led pitch invasion.

Remember it well.

That was my second ever game. Fond memories of that game. Great result and fun to watch everyone on the pitch afterwards

SAKE!

 

[The Great Cornholio]

SAKE!

Hey - It's taken 13 years to get that Stuart Munday goal on the Internet. Come back in 12 years time and I'll see what I can do!

No - my mum went as well!

Yeah, it was an easier chance, one-on-one with the keeper, but he got into 2 minds about whether to shoot or lob, and then did a soft combination of both

 

[Storer68]

why does he not start

as to the goal
