Best on field none scoring moment ....

Yours was a better telling of it. Can you remember the opposition? I can't.

 

I'm afraid I've not got a clue. It could be a task for @JLWBigLil in the morning!

 

He didn’t chin Paul Ince. He got most offended when I brought this up to him. “I never chinned Paul Ince. That’s ********…I chinned Jamie Redknapp!” He went on to tell me how scared Redknapp looked when his eyes met Shez’s at the PFA dinner.

 

Keifer Moore coming on as sub after that terrible head injury. Just in time for the promotion run in. Whole ground rose to applaud him back and I had to get the hanky out.

 

David Currie getting taken out just after the final whistle of the last game, by a fan slipping on his arse as he ran up behind him to ask for his shirt. As Currie was getting stretchered off, the fan was still trying to get his shirt, whilst it looked like Currie was uttering some very unchristian words at him.

Gillingham’s Adrian Pennock’s theatrical bow to the Reds game, after his performance as pantomime villain one game. He got some right stick, after a temper tantrum at not getting a decision and spent the last 15 minutes of the game playing up to the crowd, getting cheers when he messed up, but then gesticulating at us (in a nice way), when he managed something skillful. Funniest 15 minutes of any match at Oakwell that doesn’t involve sticking 5 past Leeds.

Howard Webb’s blatant (and remarkably well executed) dive, followed by waving the imaginary red card to get his opponent sent off, when he swapped with a player for the last 10 minutes of Bruce’s charity match. After sticking his penalty away he then milked the applause from the Reds fans by kissing his badge

See also, from the same game, Daniel Kitson needing two people to help him off the pitch after ‘badly hurting’ his leg, only to start jogging and enthusiastically exercising as soon as he crossed the touch line.

And also, from the same game, and okay, this is actually goal related, but Shaun Dooley scoring the worst goal ever seen at Oakwell. A sort of anti-Barnard. As he went to kick it in he fell over the ball and the ball seemed to hit every part of his body on the way in. Whilst lying on the floor he then suffered a pile on from all his teammates.

Rory Fallon getting subbed on his first game back at Oakwell after leaving us and, through muscle memory, going and sitting on the Reds bench. We laughed. Rory didn’t see the funny side.

 

Mike Lester shoving the ball down somebody else's pants, or summat like that. Does anybody else on here remember that ?.

 

That’s the second penalty he missed in front of the Ponty, as Clive Baker saved one in the 3-0 win over Oxford in their title winning season.

 

Ahh was that a hat trick from Gordon Owen ?.

 

The physio of the away team at Oakwell only a few years ago, can't remember which one, who ran on to aid his player. Sadly he was as wide as he was tall and as he bounced across the turf got the welcome he must have been expecting and which he probably got everywhere he went.

 

Man City in the cup at home. One of their fans in the west stand throws a toilet roll on the pitch. Toby picks it up, wipes his arse with it and throws it back in the crowd.

 

Southend I think

 

I once saw a fat bloke in Marks and Sparks. Good times.

 

I remember vinnie Jones going up for a header in Mel machins first game in charge and getting absolutely flattened by Julian broddle.

 

This was a wonderful moment. Poor Bambi! Must have been embarrassing.
Happens in F1, once in a blue moon when a driver pulls into the wrong pit box which is equally chuckle worthy.

 

David Currie thinking he’d scored a free kick against Barnsley (for Oldham?) and turning and celebrating as the ball ricocheted back into play.

John McDonald morphing into prime Ronaldinho for 10 seconds as he controlled the ball while marshalled by three opposition defenders and played the ball through a small gap between all of them.

Mark Robinson looking like he was going to vomit with nerves before stroking home that penalty vs Leicester.

I think I lost the ability to create new memories around 1992.

 

Brad Potts tackle vs Forest.

I'm sure @Dyson will be able to provide the link.

 

Sundgot hitting the post

 

Peter Springett in goal at Rochdale aeons ago. At the opposite end to us, a Rochdale striker hit a shot which beat Springett and went in the goal. We were directly behind it. It hit the stantion in the back of the net and rebounded directly into Springett's arms. Thinking quickly, he placed the ball on the corner of the 6 yard box and took a quick goal kick to our full back, Spud Murphy I think. The ref fell for it and play continued. Today it would be called "shithousery" I suppose.

 

Gerry Taggart waving to the crowd after a crunching tackle

 

Did you have a quick w@nk?
