Possibly my favourite Albion video on youtube. Admittedly I wouldn't have been laughing if we'd gone down, but still - bloody brilliant!

A Boxing Day treat from Hinshelwood. Let's hope we don't do anything similar.

To be fair to Hawkins, he had to go for that as it was a certain goal if he hadn't got something on it and it was a difficult angle and height to deal with. Why were their two players ahead of our other two defenders?

Wasnt it an FA Cup game?

Hinshelwood's effort wasn't.

Hawkins single-handedly knocked us out of the cup last year. What a genius

Vintage Colin.

the desperate cry of oh faaaaaaaaaaaaakin hell from a punter is ace, but i probably said something similar at the time

I blame Sullivan

Yup, imagine how gutted those two attacking players were that he stole an almost certain goal from them!

Should have done a poll really.

Still think Hawkins was the better effort.

Hinslewood's own goal was much, much worse than Hawkins'. I don't remember Hinslewood getting half the grief Hawkins did.

great goal by hawkins

I couldn't pick one, quite simply two of the worst own goals I've ever seen. The first one reminded me of that Terry Connor one (at Norwich?). Edges it slightly on the spectacular front, the second one scores highly on crass stupidity. Two gems of the species.

I might have to go and look for that Ian Chapman one now on youtube...

Edit: And here it is

I was at that boxing Day game for Hinsh's backpass. You could hear a pin drop as everything went into slow motion just watching the ball roll into the net. I don't think most people at the time could believe what had happened.

How about the Sunderland player who lobbed both an Albion attacker and his own goalkeeper at the Goldstone?

 

[Barrel of Fun]

I rather enjoyed Dean Cox's strike from 30 yards out on the byline. A shame the ref had blown his whistle.

 

[Basil Fawlty]

Hawkins OG against Hartlepool, was the best diving header I think I've ever seen. Nobody will score such a perfect header like that again.

 

[Barrel of Fun]

Nobody will score such a perfect header like that again.

I don't agree with that.

 

[Wilko]

Do not even try and defend Hawkins, no one else is anywhere near him, fuckin spastic.
