What is the BEST goal you’ve seen us score live and the BEST goal you’ve seen us concede live?

[SwitchBLADE Smiles]

Jags v Leeds will always be my favourite ever goal.

Marlon Harewood once hit possibly the most unstoppable shot I’ve ever seen at Bramall Lane. Proper thunder bastard. Found this - uploaded 16 years ago apparently

 

[GodricBlade]

For.
I was gonna go for Kazim-Richards or Pesch that have already been mentioned. Or even Jon Stead against Wet Sham in the Prem season.
But settled on Duffy’s bounce-slayer finish for everything about it.

Against.
Cantona takes some beating.

Tonges free kick in that west ham game was better than Steads goal.

 

[Pollingtonblade]

I liked Mike Lakes at Southampton in 1992 the limbs were something else

Against Mel Sterland nearly broke the net against us on boxing day 89

 

[georgethecat]

Not the most spectacular but the goal I have witnessed which had the greatest significance:
Jack O'Connell header in front of the kop via Ipswich

 

[Superblades]

Jags vs Middlesbrough and Leeds.
Sharp Volley against Leeds.
Brown vs Birmingham.

I love an archetype goal - the one that if someone asked you to describe a certain event in football you go straight to it.

To that extent Bindon's goal at the weekend is something I'll enjoy watching back - the pinpoint accuracy of the delivery, the well-executed movement of the triangle of six attackers to draw the defenders away from the target man, the timing of the leap, and the control and power of the header. It might not be the greatest goal, but it's not far off the perfect headed corner.

Best goal I’ve seen us score live - Enda Stevens against Brighton in our first season back in the Premier League.

Best goal I’ve seen us concede live - McAllister rocket in the top right corner Anfield away when we lost 3-1 or Bruno away at Old Trafford when we lost 4-2.

iliman is on my mind against Blackburn

 

[HighfieldBlade]

This one by Luton Shelton was textbook, straight outta the training ground manual.

I was going to say the Mel Sterland one too.

 

[Bell4]

Best goal scored
Currie v West Ham

Best goal conceded
Curren v Weds

Took me a nano second

 

[Silent Blade]

My best until Brown's goal v Wendy in 2003 was TC v Liverpool in October 1971

 

[Revolution]

Best goal for seen live:

Steve Wigley v Blackburn, November 1985

Best Goal against seen live:

Mel Sterland v Leeds, Boxing Day 1989

Ndiaye v Blackburn is so close to Wigley, but I saw that on a stream…

 

[Pawk Patrol]

Best for Blades - Michael Brown volley v that lot.

Best for oppo - can’t recall player or opponent but prob mid 80s. Corner floated out to player about 30 yards out standing in a central position who caned an uber volley into the net leaving keeper standing. Think it was only a consolation near the end but remember thinking wow/fair play etc.

 

[Tickhill Blade]

Cantona for opposition goal. I still don't know how he did that when it was blowing a gale in the 3-sided ground

 

[The Fox]

Best 2 for -

Edwards showing Pele how to do it .

Wigley out doing Maradona at individual brilliance.

 

[Anarita blade]

Sheffield United 23 Passes & George Baldock goal Vs Tottenham Hotspur​

Sunderland’s second at Wembley

 

[JPBrods]

Gillespie vs Charlton, December 2006. An absolute shitrocket on the volley. Nice piece of lore to it as well as it features in that insane December 2006 MOTD Goal of the Month reel that goes viral again every other year.

Tudgay's screamer at the kop end always springs to mind as best goal I've seen us concede in person.

As a bonus, I remember being at this game. Wes Hoolihan almost scored an absolutely outrageous half volley for Blackpool against us on Boxing Day 2007. 1min 10 secs in.

 

[e17blade]

Best goal I remember seeing live against us was Bergkamp in THAT cup replay

 

[Gin&Juice]

Jags v Leeds will always be my favourite ever goal.

Marlon Harewood once hit possibly the most unstoppable shot I’ve ever seen at Bramall Lane. Proper thunder bastard. Found this - uploaded 16 years ago apparently

Was it just me who hated that kit?

Few i’ve found that I remember





Not showing Waddles free kick.


This was another that I remember. I wasn’t there though so doesn’t count. Replay game after the Overmars and Kanu goal.

 

[Bladesince59]

Greavsie back in the 60s at BDTBL when Spurs thumped us 3 1

 

[N20 Blade]

Gannon's volley at the scabs 1992. Wrong foot too.

 

[SirNibletsO'Korne]

Alan Quinn v West Ham was a beauty. Lovely freekick from way out.
As has been mentioned earlier in the thread, Harewoods in the same game was a proper 'pick that fucker out' goal.

 

[Stanthemanfan]

Jags v leeds
Ericksons free kick v spurs in Cup

 

[Stanthemanfan]

Score - Jags vs Leeds or Brown vs pigs.

Against? Christian Eriksen free kick in the league cup semi final. Truly incredible hit.

Snap!

 

[ancientblade]

My best until Brown's goal v Wendy in 2003 was TC v Liverpool in October 1971

great goal silent but still the daisy cutter against leeds in sept 70 still my fav.currie goal

 

[United Aren't Back.]

John Matthews v Cambridge United Dec 30 1978.
Late equaliser in snow in a 3 all draw.
Against I will go with...dunno yet.

 

[N20 Blade]

Jon Harley scored a really nice goal for West Ham in a 3-3 draw.

I think in the grand scheme of things it couldn’t really be considered ‘the best goal ever’ but thanks to where I was sitting on John Street I was right behind the strike so could see it arrowing into the postage stamp in the top corner.




Great bit of ‘swazz’ on it too

Wow. Don't remember that!! Was that before or after he played for us?

 

[tincan]

Long distance goals are great but 99% of the time miss, TC's quality goal is the best as he beats the entire defense, wrong foots the goalie and passes it in to the net, that's my favourite.

 

[Sportbilly /Detroit Blade]

Dellas from 80 yards
Michael Brown against Ipswich
Brian Deane’s long ranger
Lee Evans

Tend to black out good goals against us. The one that sticks in my mind most recently was Harvey Barnes’s half volley. It wasn’t amazing, but I remember thinking that’s great technique and having some admiration. Probably last time.

Did someone score a screamer in the last minute at home in League 1. Think everyone applauded. Was a volley. Can’t remember the team or player.

Dellas from 80 yards , certainly felt like it at the time!
