    And why is it definitely Tom Rogic scoring a screamer and breaking Bates leg in the process?

    Larsson megging the huns defender before casually chipping the ball over the huns best keeper, leaving them absolutely embarrassed and on the end of a thumping defeat.

    Larsson’s one for me that summed up just how above anyone he was, was when he chipped the keeper and decided nah I’ll just volley it in on the line. Absolute taking the pish that.



    The other Larsson one that’s a bit underrated was the left foot volley? Half volley? No other player except maybe Lubo or Di Canio when that first touch bounces up like it did would already be turning to volley it in, on the weaker foot. Saying that, Lubo didn’t have one of them either.

    At their midden no less, that was like 2 goals in one there was an equal cheer when everyone realised he’d crocked Master Bates after scoring a screamer.

    Of all the Huns I’d have loved to get knocked out in that team, Papac was the least offensive of them in that line up as well:56:

    knocked him out with the best shot in his career, scored the rebound with the worst shot he’d ever do :56:

    Sure Wilson scored 3 in 3 with it as well, only scored 3 for us. Funny as * all round.

    Can’t talk about that goal winning the replay, without mentioning The Broony goal to get us the replay. That’s right up there, Broony on his left peg down to 10 men and the best celebration ever. Diouf just standing next to him was fate :56:

    Aye preferably one where a hun was knocked out or suffered a horrific injury in the build-up.

    Going for Mark Wilson. Especially given the nature of that game and how the huns lot their *.

    Larsson’s Goal overall but the next goal against the orcs will be the best ever initially :giggle1:

    Lambert chipped in with a belter as well.

    Larsson chip obviously

    Edouard winner in 3 - 2 game after being reduced to 10 men.

    They thought they had us that day but it just showed how far ahead we were that we could beat them at home with only 10 men.

    It also a fantastic goal and gave us a brief window into what that Édouard/dembele partnership coupe have been like

    The what’s the goalie doing Tom goal was excellent as well. They were cheering thinking Broony got done still before they noticed he’d put a cracker of a pass to Dembele to score. They were cheering still when it the net:56:

    Broony had them on strings man

    Honourable mention for Jota's goal at home against them, definitely one that sticks out in the memory.

    In ascending order of near-perfection:

    3. Hooper’s first in the 3-0 at CP in Feb. 2011, where he took a couple of touches to leave Weir on his backside before lashing home.

    2. Hatate’s first* in the 3-0 in Ange’s first season. Great searching run from Abada, with a perfectly timed pass; lovely first touch and a magnificent finish; long range, under the floodlights. Chef’s kiss stuff.

    1. Henke’s chip. No more need be said.

    *EDIT: That was actually Hatate’s second. First was the one that came off a spilled corner.

    That Candeias going through Broony from behind to rapturous applause from the home crowd, only for it to result in an assist for Dembele chipping the keeper :56:

    No my favourite but goals that sum them up..

    Kyogo had at least a couple.
    Stepping inside for top corner screamer and the super early strike from 25 yards were superb.

    Murdo in 3-3 game.
    Lubo a great couple too as did Naka
    But for me Henriks in 6-2 game topped the lot.
