Sheaf Saint Posted 13 December, 2012 Share Posted 13 December, 2012 I was listening on Solent (before the days of live commentary and they would interrupt the music with that jingle that made you sh1t yourself in anticipation of which way the goal had gone!) and I honestly thought Grant Coleman had made a mistake when he announced the goalscorer.

Kingsland Red Posted 13 December, 2012 Share Posted 13 December, 2012 I was there and it was Kingsland Red Junior's first trip to The Dell (aged seven). I had to explain that it wasn't a regular occurrence, hence the massive celebrations ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This Charming Man Posted 13 December, 2012 Share Posted 13 December, 2012 We'll be saying the same thing about Jack Cork in 15 years. Actually, that's probably wishful thinking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Cat Posted 13 December, 2012 Share Posted 13 December, 2012 Cork didn't score when we had him on loan either. Must have played 75 odd games for us, mostly in midfield with 0 goals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

benjii Posted 14 December, 2012 Share Posted 14 December, 2012 'Lets all have a curry' echoed all around the dell What went mlt's head to pick out franny the man who never scored? I was in the lower East Stand, near the away section. As everyone was getting into position for the free-kick my mate tapped me on the arm and said, "Franny's free at the back-post". We both laughed and said there's no way the ball will be going to that area then. What a great header though! [video=youtube;qodg-csJI8Y] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was that the one where Dave Beasant ran the length of the field with the ball up his shirt whilst his team mates blocked the opposition NFL style?

Bucks Saint Posted 14 December, 2012 Share Posted 14 December, 2012 15 years ago - wow. I still cant work out if the ball did indeed hang in the air for ages, or was it just that the total and utter disbelief swamped all of us that day , and time actually stopped for a second or two?

Could've been, but I don't remember it being contrived. My recolection is a 25yd rocket & wondering why he couldn't do it in a real match. I may have been drinking though.

Monkou Posted 14 December, 2012 Share Posted 14 December, 2012 Was behind the goal in the Milton Road end. Can't beleive its 15 years, feels like longer ago than that.
