Barnards Goal

Don't know if anyone else has mentioned it but i'm sure it came of the defenders hand (gerrard i think) because everyone went handba..*cheers*
 
was a blatent handball and own goal but i had barnard as first scorer and the bookies paid out so im happy
 
was real obvious..
not sure if the announcer would have got the same cheer shouting that the goalscorer wasn't one of our players!

Yep me too, 25/1 on Barney and 1-0.....it's fair to say I was pretty quick to snap up my winnings yesterday as I wasn't hanging about for a stewards inquiry on who got the vital touch!!

Couldn't believe it when they gave it to Barnard though, clear own goal!!
 
I had 1-0 so went home very happy but it looked an OG all the way to me even after seeing it several times today.
 
I was just grateful it went in.....was worried that with all the play we had, it was gonna be a day where the ball werent going in the onion bag....
 
Never Barnard's goal in a million years. Oh well, good luck to him, if he got a goal bonus I hope he bunged Gerrard a fiver!
 
i was nearer to it than Barney! Never his goal in a million years but hey, if you can claim em good luck!:liar:
Wouldn't mind betting the dubious goals comittee take it away though and award an own goal. Then i would expect you all to take your winnings back to the bookies like the good people you are.;)
 
Probably the most blatant own goal off a hand (or arm!) since Maradona's! Don't begrudge Barnard claiming it, but felt a bit sorry for Mulgrew, who supplied the ball in and was therefore our last player to touch the ball.
 
Blatant own-goal, but it was typical of Barnard to be in there, hassling the defender into a mistake. Even if Barney didn't get the final touch, he might as well have, so I'm more than happy to see him claim it (like the professional he is!)

Not like Gerrard wants it anyway.

And you sir are right. I remember at the time shouting something like
"Handba-aaa-aaaayyyyyyyy you beuuuutttyyy!!"

:support:

Maradona's wasn't an own goal.
