Best Blades Goals!

[silverfox]

These yung uns have seen nowt !

Tony Tony Currie.................................

Tony Field scored a pretty good goal too where he beat loads of players!

I've got the press clippings somewhere.

Tony Field goal - think it was against Ipswich 1974ish. 3-1 win ? I was a youngster on the railings at the front of the kop, fell off (as usual) when the goal was scored. Think it (both the goal and me falling off) is on the '100 goals' video that various people have mentioned. Brilliant goal but Field was an inconsistent so and so, brilliant one minute, awful the next.

TC 40yrd screamer against Spurs ! at BDTBL

Geoff Salmons scored one from way out on the wing too......against Man Utd I think?

 

[Ballinpigpubs13]

On a more recent note everybody goes on about jagielkas tap in against L*ed$.
What about the last minute winner by Tri Dellas that went like a bullet.

No mention of the great Alan Woodward, mind you so many of his were real screamers with old heavy when wet case balls not the light plastic like shit of today, Jags eat yer heart out yours don't come close.

The 2 he got at Derby away (if my memory is right) were great.

Harder shot than Lorimer!

Can anybody help me? Been so many best goals I've seen but the one that sticks out and I can't even remember the opposition. It was in the mid eighties and the scorer for the Blades was Steve Wigley. I believe this was his only goal for the club? but if it was, what a goal! I remember Wigley getting the ball just inside the oppositions half and going around half their team, this run was split up by the odd one two before passing the ball into the net at the Bramall lane end. If somebody more high profile had scored it ,then it would have been on numerous dvd's.:easy:

A quick statto glance says that it was indeed Steve Wigley's only goal for the club. It was in a Division Two match v Blackburn Rovers on November 16, 1985, which ended 3-3.

In the notes for that season in The Blades Bible, Denis Clareborough writes "It was ironic that his first and only goal he scored was a brilliant individual effort.".

It's also interesting to note that Blackburn (soon to be Moneybags) Rovers won the league just nine seasons later, but when we played them away in the April of the 85/6 season (a 6-1 thrashing, Edwards was our goalscorer) the match was witnessed by a crowd just of 4736.

They finished 19th out of 22, avoiding relegation by three points and one place. How times change ......

i remember being at the dell when michael 'zico' lake netted the screamer that was a good goal :thumbup:

 

[S9sufc]

Brown and Akinbiyi Vs Pigs
and Tongey Vs west Ham and Jags Vs Middlesbrough to secure our first win in prem

 

[Ballinpigpubs13]

Must agree Brownies against pigs was an absolute belter.
:thumbup:

I too remember the Steve Wigley goal, it was a quite stunning individual effort. I didn't realise it was his only goal for us though!

Speaking of Keith Edwards, through the haze of my Stella-addled memory I have a vague recollection of Sir Keith dummying the keeper, Pele style, but unlike the Brazilian master(who hit the post), Edwards scored. Would some of the older members help me out in clarifying that this indeed happened and who it was against etc.? Would I be right in thinking it was scored at the Kop end?

 

[SouthEssexBlade]

Can't remember who it was against but I do remember the Edwards dummy goal, my hazy memory has it at the Bramall Lane end but then that is as reliable as a Woolies voucher. He also scored with a fantastic chip against Steve Ogrizovic when he was at Shrewsbury, no mean feat when you consider that Oggie was about 8' tall.

The Woody double at Derby in the season we got relegated was the best pair in a match by one player I've ever seen.

Best goal would be THE quality goal by a quality player.

Best team goal was one that TC got at Everton to win 3-2 from 2-0 down.

I have vague memories of a Gary Hamson corker against Liverpool in a cup game as well.

 

[Slugger]

Great memory of Deano winning a tackle on the halfway line with Grobelaar way out of his goals. Deano looking up and lobbing it in from all of about 40000 yards (ish) ... Steve Nicol sprinting back and jumping with his hands up to try and stop it going in ... well that's how I remember it. I think we beat Liverpool 2-1 that day with Deano getting both.

There's great goals and there's important last minute all or nothing goals (another thread?). What about Holdsworth's or (was it Tiler) to put us in the play-offs?

Happy days. Hazy memories!

My memory of the Edwards dummy was at the Kop end. But i'm old and senile.

The Hamson goal was great, as was the match......heroic stuff from the Blades that day against Liverpool when they were good.

Indeed happy memories.

Yes, last minute or all or nothing goals is really interesting! got me thinking now

 

[Ballinpigpubs13]

Quite relevant at the moment but if Beats does go I will always remember him for the goal he scored against the pigs to level the game 2-2 at the lane. What a life saver! would have been the first time they'd have done the double over us in years. What a freekick. :thumbup:

 

[Blades-7]

I enjoyed Kabba's against Leeds in the FA Cup quarter finals 2002/03, good times, good times...

 

[bettsyblade86]

Trianos Dellas, from outside his own box (it seemed) screamer. was deemed surplus to requirements and ended up at Juve after captaining Greece to the Euro's! what could have been aye....

Left because he was 'homesick' actually. Nothing to do with (allegedly) humping half of the staff at the dancing studio which gave us the 'Bladettes' at all ...... oh no ....... they became the 'Spirettes' right after all that too .......

Bloody great goal v Pompey though!

 

[happyhippy]

I've got to mention this as it got replayed earlier on SSN ...... Saunders v Port Vale was fantastic

It got replayed because it was "cheeky" in the light of Potatohead's "cheeky" corner yesterday v Chelsea.

Just remembered another fab goal from my youth after reading the utd book who's who. It was when Billy McCewan was manager we had a player on loan called Andy Kennedy season 1986-87 he ran virtually from our own box with the Blackburn team in chase and cooly chipped the keeper from the edge of their box. The crowd at Bramall lane that day was 7762 but the few that were there witnessed a real gem of a goal. It says in the book he ran over 60yds.:thumbup:
It's hard to believe when we get crowds now regularly over 20,000 that we only used to get 7 to 8000!!!!
