    Oh dear!!

    Here's me going on about feeling "young" despite my age all the time, then I go and post seomthing like that!!! What a plonker I am.

    I really should think before I post (or so I'm told!) :D

    Couldn't resist it, was one of the most bizarre incidents I've seen at a Barnsley match.

    It does sound like a weird one

    But surely it isn't as bizarre as seeing odejayi score a goal.

    I remember that one.There was also a game in the late 80.s when Gwyn Thomas had a shot which hit the staunchon and bounced out.We only got the goal because the linesman saw it.I think it was against Norwich in a 2-2 draw.

    I saw that too

    Last minute equaliser against Norwich. A belting goal and totally out of character for Gwyn Thomas, who was a top player but not a goal scorer.

    It was away at Rochdale

    It was at the opposite end to the reds fans where I was stood directly in line. The ball went in the back of the net and bounced back out.

    Springett admitted afterwards "It was a goal" in various newspaper reports.

    No

    Can you remember who painted the goalposts?

    Seriously, I never saw any of the other goals. I was playing myself in those days and I used to sneak in through the gates when they opened them to let fans out, after our game had finished.

    David Hirst scored our opening goal

    But I can't remember who put the extra coat of paint on the goalposts. Proof, if proof were needed, that my memory's gone.

    It was in January 1978. It was a definate goal. I was stood bang in line at the same end of the pitch.
