Dave Unsworth v Derby(h) in Sept 2005? To my knowledge the other goals direct from a corner were Alan Woodward (v Newcastle h in Sept 1969, Leicester a in Sept 1971, Coventry h in Nov 1971 and Norwich h in Jan 1973) and Geoff Salmons (v Man City a in Mar 1974)

I'd guess v Mansfield, Butler

 

[Silent Blade]

I thought you meant direct from a corner!

I'd guess v Mansfield, Butler

He'd be on 5 or 6 by now

Jamal Campbell Ryce versus QPR.

Alan Woodward ...... 1974 ....

How are we going to score from a corner / defend a corner with a team full of midgets ??

Harry was a beast, a really strong guy and we WILL miss him. Not only for his defensive abilities, calmness under pressure, his assured nature but one point so far over looked on here; is as a goal scorer. At a corner/set piece he really was a handful with his presence. Every season he has got more and more dangerous in the opposition box. We've lost a player who potentially could get 5 to 8 goals a season. Interestingly Jack Charlton scored an average of one every 9 league games. Harry already is pretty close to that stat in his last 2 seasons.

Unofficially they are not corners, they are catching practice for the opposition keepers.

Very true. He could score with his feet too. My one reservation about Basham is he should score more. Gets into good positions often but his finishing (especially heading) is woeful. Practice needed.

Wasn't Unsy's late winner against Hull (when they had pulled it back to 2 2) that almost sealed promotion direct from a corner? My memory is hazy (I just remember going crazy) but I thought it was for some reason.

There is also Mark Dempsey's goal in the 3-2 defeat at Oldham in 1987-8. Big Stan (who also scored the other goal), swore he got a touch, but it was awarded to Dempsey.

Unsworth blasted in the winner from close range after a scramble in the box

Didnt know that, cheers. I was at Blackpool that weekend

Maybe ..... just maybe, we could practice corners in training a bit ...... you know both taking them and defending them

Sorry, just me being stupidly practical, ignore that crazy idea !!
