Tooj 17 Posted October 28, 2006 Share Posted October 28, 2006 I'm on about since you've started following the Toon here. Now me only being 21 I don't have the experience of seeing as many matches down the years as a lot of folk on this board, so obviously I can't say Pedro's classic against Brighton or that peach McGhee scored when he ran it from basically in his own half. Now I could go from anything from a Shearer volley vs Everton, although my favourite Shearer goal at SJP has to be the free-kick he scored against Arsenal at the Leazes End, looked like it was never going to finish. Pedro obviously scored a few peaches, such as the goal against Norwich for example, Ginola's against Ferencvaros, Alex Mathie's versus Sheff Wed was also a personal favourite of mine, I also seem to remember Peacock scoring a fantastic chip against Swindon I think it was were he took it down and lobbed the keeper, obviously Robert has a few contenders. But however for me, despite the fact it wasn't from a Toon player, I honestly can't look past Bergkamp's versus us in the 2001/02 season, now I am a self confessed Bergkamp fan and I think he is the most underrated player i've ever seen in the fact his technique for me is by far the best the Premiership has ever seen, the vision everything about him is superb (even the fact he was a nasty bastard) but I don't know if he meant that goal. However I can safely say i've never seen a goal as good as that in all my times since i've been watching the Toon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Kenneth Noisewater 0 Posted October 28, 2006 Share Posted October 28, 2006 The Beardsley one against Brighton for me. Also, one Glenn Hoddle scored against us for Spurs in about '85 sticks out as a goody by an opposing player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasepud 59 Posted October 28, 2006 Share Posted October 28, 2006 <scans memory for details> As Ive said before my footballing memory is shite so the details are so hazy! but my fave would be the one back in the good old days where *insert name of opposition here* had a penalty at the Leazes (I was in the Gallowgate at the time) Super Kev Carr saved it and rolled it out to *name of player 1* who passed to Waddle (i think) legs it up pitch, passes to Beardsley, legs it some more, maybe Keegan had a touch or so and then *I think* Beardo scored...or was it Waddle? come to think of it it may have been Keegan but I think it was Pedro.

@yourservice 67 Posted October 28, 2006 Share Posted October 28, 2006 That 25 yard chip by Albert v Man u & probably the best goalkeeper in the world at the time,you can talk about pedro and how he slid in to win the ball and chip corrigan but Albert's was just as good how he ghosted through the mancs and topped it off.

Kid Dynamite 5965 Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 Was sat in perfect line with shearers volley against villa and roberts free kick against man u in the 4-3. Could see both goals going in all the way! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JawD 31 Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 That spring to mind, maybe when Steve Watson volleyed against Liverpool in the cup. It was at Anfield, but I was at SJP watching the beamback they used to do - so technically it was at SJP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 'best' by a country fucking mile! After that you're looking at: Gascoigne v Palace (1988) McGhee v Bradford (1990) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holden McGroin 4929 Posted October 29, 2006 Share Posted October 29, 2006 Can remember David Hirst sticking one in the stanchion for Sheff Wed (and gettting a hat trick that day). Sticks out for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Kelly 1117 Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 It really pisses me off that I cannot for the life of me remember DK's goal against Pompy. I'm sure I was there but I cannot remember a thing about it. Ginola's volley against that Hungarian team in the wafa, Albert's chip or Shearea's volley against Manure are all highlights for me.

Jimbo 133 Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 Robert's free kick in the 4-3 Vs ManUre. The only thing to beat that, was the sight of Roy Keane getting his marching orders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ted Maul 0 Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 Since I don't get to games often the choice is limited.... Robert vs. Liverpool 2005 or Bernard vs. Rangers (Gatesheed Cup) 2004 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gram 0 Posted October 30, 2006 Share Posted October 30, 2006 David Kelly V Pompey. Passed from pillar to post, ended up 2 rows and an enitire section from where I sat. I still have the bruises. Yep thats the one for me. He knobbed one in a few weeks earlier that was pretty important. Dont see many goals knobbed in by the likes of Bergkamp or Henry do you??? Best goal I saw was Gazzas against Chelsea. I was sat in the makeshift seats in the Leazes for some reason that day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
