What is the best Brighton goal you have ever seen live?...

[The Birdman]

Bert Murray v Swansea
Brian Bromley v Tranmere
John Templeman v Rochdale
Willie Irvine v Villa at home .
Kit Napier v Bradford City
Alan Duffy v Bradford City on debut
Every Peter Ward goal
Mark Lawrenson v Wolves
so many over the years without touching the early sixties and the 70's on

i was at all these games but you should add Gerry Ryan's goal in the mud at the Goldstone when he kept dribbling and should have passed but went on to score.
Can't remember who it was against. Was it Coventry?

 

[Whitechapel]

Elliott Bennett v Oldham back in 2010.

Goal is at 1:14 in this video:

 

[Brighton Mod]

Jimmy Case at Highbury.

We were right behind the goal, what a shot, but surely daves goal against Palace must rank up there?

 

[Trevor]

been watching Albion since mid-80's about half a dozen games a season

Best for me was Sidwell vs Bristol City last year

 

[Kosh]

Peake 60 yard first time half volley pass, to McDonald, one touch control, left foot cross, Maskell rises.. back of the net.

Vs. Leyton Orient at the Goldstone, ended 4-4... the game that had everything including the last stand of Ray Wilkins.

Truly one the best games I've ever seen.

 

[Everest]

Vicente against Derby, best non-goal ever. And, if it had gone in, best goal too. Probably the most sublime bit of football I have seen from a player wearing the stripes.

Mark Farrington with a 'shinner' somewhen in 1992.

Mark Lawrenson vs Wolves in the FA Cup.

Similar to the Vicente run vs Derby, only he beat more players and scored!!!

Very much this one for me

Was v Man City I think. Great goal - but for me Willie Irvine's was the best, also Zamora at Bury

 

[Mellotron]

Skalak v QPR was the best technique I've ever witnessed from a BHA player. On another level, that was.

 

[junior]

Zamora v Halifax.

 

[LamieRobertson]

Gary Williams v Forest and Shilton at Goldstone!

This will always stick in my mind

You saw every Peter Ward goal.....respect

 

[The Bear]

Another for Zamora at Bury.

"Don't shoot from thereoooOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHH"

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

Another for Zamora at Bury.

"Don't shoot from thereoooOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHH"

Yes, I was behind the goal for that. It caused consternation, to say the last. There was another that he scored at home when the ball came over his head from high and he vollyed it from an angle. But for me it was Barry Butlin's shot into th North (his only goal for us, I suspect).

 

[Seagull]

Several ways to answer this:
Relief: Reinelt (Hereford)
Emotional: Buckley 2nd (Doncaster)
Technical: Lopez (Palace)
I also expect I've seen some "better" goals that I have forgotten because they do not have the emotional resonnance of these

 

[DumLum]

That's the one - all the others are runners up.

Too young to see it live myself. Watched it many times on 101 great goals vhs.
Wasn't Nelsons goal voted the best ever by NSC? Didn't see it myself and I don't believe there is any TV evidence around.

 

[We're the Stripes]

Gary Dicker scored a sweet, sweet volley against Exeter once.

Me too - looking at the pitch the goal was to my left and down a little.

Didn't see Dave's goal live so I'm ineligible to comment.
