Best goals that weren't. 06:20 - Nov 30 with 4060 views | enfieldargh | Andre Grey's belter from outside the box reminded me of a shot that flew in from Akos away at Ipswich. Wonderful shots shame about the refs sticking to the rules | |

Best goals that weren't. on 20:14 - Nov 30 with 670 views | derbyhoop | I tried to reproduce Gerry's goal of the season from 75/76. Playing for Old Actonians on Gunnersbury Park Played the 1-2 perfectly and hit it from about 15 yards out. It went inches past the post (wrong side) and ended up in the other half of the pitch behind the goal. | |

Last game of the season a few years back, we were at home to Stoke. They needed a win to get in the playoffs, it ended as a draw. All the Rangers fans knew it was going to be Paul Furlong’s last game for us. He came on as a sub for the last 10 minutes or so, nearly got the winner. Don’t remember it being a particularly spectacular build up or anything, but always thought it was a real shame he didn’t score because it would’ve brought the house down and it would’ve been the ending to his QPR career that the man deserved. Also no idea who it was against but there was a Faurlin one at the Loft end which had it gone in would’ve been one of the greatest goals ever seen at that end. Can’t remember details but didn’t he knock it up and volley it from distance, but the keeper saved. Anyone remember that? | | | |

Oh and here’s another. In the 90s I used to play 2 matches a week on the big astroturf pitch under the Westway. I once scored a goal direct from a corner but the fücking ref disallowed it and gave them a free kick. He said that our big South African striker Ronnie had fouled their keeper. That was definitely the kind of thing that Ronnie liked to do but on this occasion he definitely didn’t. | | | |
