I seam to remember Gary Hart getting a last minute winner verses Millwall. Am I making this up?
Yep that definitely happened. I remember as for odd reasons which I won't go into here I was watching from the trees!
For us oldies, a towering header by Norman Gall v Tranmere at the Goldstone in 1965 (in a very misty/ smoky South Stand goal) Top of the table clash and one which ultimately resulted in our Div 4 Championship. I think Bobby Smith had equalised earlier.
Surely Buckley v Doncaster! Absolutely amazing moment, don't think you'll see many moments like that on the opening day of a season. Cannot be replicated, but our first goal/win in the premier league will be close.
For me it has to be Michael Thomas scoring in injury time at Anfield to win Arsenal the league championship in 1989.
I was his PE Teacher for 6 years and I spent much time together with him during his school days and after he signed for Arsenal.
He was a full back then and I was a centre forward and I used to joke with him about his lack of composure in front of goal.
And suddenly there he was scoring the most famous goal in English soccer history !!!!!
I wept for ages.... it was the most emotional moment I'd ever witnessed.
As emotional Ulloa's goal was on Saturday, it doesn't quite match Michael's moment in 1989
