Toonpack 9963 Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 Two Tommy's (coincidently both of whom only scored 22 NUFC goals). Tommy Cassidy scored a pearler from about 25 yards (against who I can't recall, Burnley mebe's !?!?!?!) it never got over a couple of inches off the ground but went like a missile. Think it may have won goal of the season on Shoot. A fellow codger may recall it. Tommy Craig v Spuds in the gallowgate end left foot curler from way out wide, was sat right behind it in the East Stand, great view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toonpack 9963 Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 P.S. Best goal that never was (after Rob Lee's) Pop Robson direct free kick curler (Beckham/Ronaldo-esque) v Arsenal disallowed because that twat George Graham encroached and wasn't 10 yards, stupid Ref made us retake it, needless to say didn't score.

Kid Dynamite 7174 Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 Shearer's goal record for Blackburn btw: played 138, goals 112 Have you seen Messi and Ronaldo's current records. Crackers Since his £80m transfer from Manchester United in the summer of 2009, Ronaldo had scored 138 times in 136 appearances for Real Madrid. In that period, Barcelona's maestro delivered 161 goals in 159 games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chronic the Drug Wasp 6 Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 You have to consider the calibre of players Messi and Ronaldo play alongside at Barca and Real compared to Shearer at Blackburn. Had he went to Man United in his early-mid 20s I think his goals to games ratio would've been comparable to that of those two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luckyluke 2 Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 Dyer was class but Ben Arfa's goals have been better for me. Dyer's runs were basically about him knocking it out of his feet and getting on his bike. Ben Arfa operates at pace too, but he's a million times more skillfull. He's about balance, dropping the shoulder and drawing the challenge. He'll run head on into defenders facing him and beat them, whereas Dyer was more about knocking it past them and relying on the after burners kicking in. Didn't see this the other day, I wasn't saying Dyer was comparable to Ben Arfa. Just that in terms of SHEER ATHLETICISM Dyer's Everton goal is probably only matched by Ben Arfa's recent goal against Bolton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
