Re: Your favourite ever city goal
For sheer mayhem - Ben Turner or was it Tony Bird's second away to Liege or Leigh Barnard's goal after 47 seconds against the Jacks at the Vetch
or was it when we were 'banned' from the vetch and Stant scored that volley - stood there chest out right in line with me as I sat amongst their union jacked combat 18 morons unnoticed - but I'm sure Phil knew that I was with him - I just knew it.
Or for sheer laughs Lynex goal away to Enfield in the FA Cup
Re: Your favourite ever city goal
Craig Bellamy’s Against Swansea.
What is unique I think about it is there’s a momentary pause as we were all that the other end before utter pandemonium 😃
Listen to the clip on YouTube and you’ll see what I mean 😉👍

Re: Your favourite ever city goal
Andy Campbell's winner in the play-off final. Not the greatest ever goal but a big, big goal in our history.

Magic day
Re: Your favourite ever city goal
Earnie, Turner, Buchanan, Hasselbaink and Scott Young were all wonderful goals. I'd like to add Peter Sayers goal against Spurs in 1977 F A Cup third round.

Yep, best goal I've ever seen. Peter was back in Cardiff last week staying with my mate Tommy, he lives in Spain these days, he's still fit as a fiddle at the age of 74.

Being in those crowds was simply incredible and magical , and so hard to share and explain to people who have not experienced the game in its purest form .

Correct - all white with blue edging. Right footed volley from 20-25 yards. I was on the Bob Bank, toward the Canton stand, aged 14 :biggrin:

Same on the Bob Bank terrace. I think McCormack pretty much ended up in there as well. For sheer pants wetting joy I think it's Chopra vs Jacks for me (had to miss the Carling Cup Final).
Eddie's goal vs Doncaster will always be a fond memory though :hehe:

Ben turners was class too but the come down after losing on penalties makes it void.
Re: Your favourite ever city goal
Young v Leeds for the pure pandemonium. I was only just 14. Behind the goal in the grange end..end of the game I didn't stop moving forward until I got to the centre circle..lost everyone..was mayhem.
Campbell v QPR because it meant we reached the Championship. Couldn't hear my old man all game who was sat next to me..haven't heard noise like it.

Gilligan v Exeter '87
Adams v Wrexham '94
Earnie v Stoke (hat trick)
Ledley v Barnsley cup semi final
Turner v Liverpool
Curtis v Wrexham '88
Blake's first v Stockport (hat trick)
Blake v Man C
Kav v Leeds
Koumas v Leeds
Re: Your favourite ever city goal
No one's mentioned the Stant goal v Middlesbrough in the FA CUP 3rd round replay in the 93/94 season after we'd drawn 2-2 in the home game. Fantastic goal, came in about the 11th minute I think, and Stant was already limping with an injury. If my memory (through a drunken haze at the time) is right, I think Brazil brought the ball from our half along the right, crossed it and Stant leaped salmonesque and seemed to hang in the air for an eternity before heading in. He was subbed straight after the goal as he could hardly walk. They drew level, but Blakey scored the winner in extra time to give us the tie against Man City.
Re: Your favourite ever city goal
Has to be the John Buchanan goal for me.

Either this one or perhaps Peter Sayer against Spurs in the cup.

dale's goal in front of the grange end is a joy to watch. A beautifully flighted 60 yard through ball volleyed into the net with the fans behind the goal going nuts.
Re: Your favourite ever city goal
Ryan Nicholls header v Leyton Orient
Re: Your favourite ever city goal
Hasn’t Peter King’s wonder goal against Middlesbrough been mentioned yet? Now that was some goal, someone must have footage of it,
Re: Your favourite ever city goal
1968 City v Millwall on a frozen pitch at Ninian Park.
Brian King the Millwall keeper takes a goal kick and it goes straight
at Brian Clark who heads it straight back into the net in front of
the Grange End.
Maybe not the best but it is my favourite and unique in my 50 plus
years of watching City.
