What goal (no BHA) as a kid did you try and recreate in the back garden ??

[seagurn]

always tried to do moselys save the one he did like banks cant remember who we were playing but my brother twatted me as i was supposed to let it in .
then he would do pitch invasions and twat me again telling me that at chesterfield 77 the time albion fans got to there end it was empty?? is it true?

i was the blackest blue white kid in uckfield

now teaching my son to do the bas

Klaus Fischer's scissor kicks

I used to try Hoddles lovely chip against Watford (a dustbin as goalkeeper). Never got the same height as he did !!

Tired most of Hoddles to be honest. Never quite managed them though.

im not a kid but i might try the bas savage moonwalk in my garden

 

[The Large One]

Ian Chapman's own goal v Leeds.

 

[Gully]

I demonstrated the moonwalk to a couple of colleagues yesterday, and bored them with the story about him telling the ref to wait for him to finish, plus the players mobbing him after the second goal to stop him doing it again.

 

[Billy the Fish]

Another one for Yeboah, for some reason I was always more satisfied with hitting the bar than actually scoring, I suppose that was the best of both worlds

 

[Mendoza]

the "Michael Thomas charging through the midfield..........its up for grabs now!!!!" goal

and then the silly weird upside down fish on a line celebration

 

[Robot Chicken]

Maradona's second goal against England!

 

[Tony the Pony]

Charlie George's Cup Final goal v Liverpool (shows my age a bit!)

 

[JJ McClure]

Probably attempted David Platt's v Belgium a fair few times never with any success. Trying to watch the ball over your shoulder and volley it would usually result in either missing it completely or occasionally running into the goal post or hedge or whatever else was nearby.

When I were a lad, everyone was trying that free-kick for Coventry, where one bloke lifted the ball between both feet by jumping - he let's it drop for his team-mate to volley it in over the defensive wall.

Willie Carr and Ernie Hunt I think. On your own the trick was to flick it up then turn around and volley it.

Worrying how much trivia there is floating around one's brain.

I did a passabe imitation of the Gazza goal in Euro 96 playing 5-a-Side once (yes yes yes - there was no height rule).

Me too... the Moseley save was awesome. Tried the Banks save too but that's quite difficult to recreate... gettýng you're left arm under your body as you dive.

Was a big fan of Alan Rough and his great performance against England (1976?) was another one.

Also remember wabting to score goals like Brandts did in the World Cup 1978.

 

[Moshe Gariani]

good thread

I spent many happy hours being a right footed Justin Fashanu

"Oh, what a goal...! That's a magnificent goal...!"

 

[Tommy Cook reporting]

Had forgotten about this, mine strangely would be Steve Coppell's in some late 70s FA Cup Final. Done it twice since! Running at full pelt you head the ball first, outpace 20 or 30 (ahem) defenders, then crack it across the keeper from 25yds in to the corner of the net.

By the way, hope this doesnt make me illegitimate?

 

[Icy Gull]

Ricky Villa's mazy dribble and goal against Coventry is what I'd like to do but I'd lose the ball and fall over I have no doubt.

 

[Trufflehound]

Almost pulled it off once.

Don't yank so hard next time.
