    Frank Bokas threw a goal against Manchester United. Breen, Man. U's Irish International keeper got his fingers to it and it went into the net. If he hadn't touched it the goal wouldn't have counted.

    Joe Joyce and Phil Chambers were good at taking throw ins and so was Norman Hunter but Macca has to be the best I've ever seen by far.

    Anyone remember

    a player (no idea which club) that used to do a sort of forward roll, with the ball in his hands before landing back on his feet and throwing the ball into the 6-yard box from near the halfway line?

    I remember seeing the guy do it but I can't recall his name. It definitely wasn't Dave Challinor though. He was awesome with his throw in's when he played for Tranmere. A bit past it now though!
