Fastest FA Cup Goal - Nicky Bailey?

[Southminster_Shrimper]

Was that the fastest ever FA Cup goal today?

Straight in at the Top

Nicky Bailey in 23 seconds

Previous seem to have been (if you believe Wikipedia)

Di Matteo in 43 seconds

Although there is mentioned of some bloke for Wolves on 30 seconds and Alan Sunderland on 13 seconds (albeit the latter was a replay).

So while it wasnt a great game, is this another fastest goal record Southend have gained?

Would sit nicely against the fastest debut goal.....no prizes for who got that one!

Maybe it will be mentioned on MOTD later!

Di Matteo's goal in the final is i believe, thought that was 8 Seconds?

No, that was after 40-odd seconds.

 

[Beefy]

Di Matteo was in the first minute but I don't think it was as quick as Bailey's was.

Oh what a game we all thought we were in store for after 23 seconds...

 

[C'mon you Shrimpers]

BBC Essex said it was the fastest ever.

BBC Essex said it was the fastest ever.

If BBC Essex said it i think we can safely assume it wasn't :rolleyes:

wee4, it can't have been - Alan Sunderlands goal after 13 second in the F.A. Cup Semi-Final second replay against Liverpool in 1980 was the FASTEST ever F.A. Cup Semi-Final goal.

22 seconds according to the BBC interactive service. 5k in attendance, pretty cruddy for a Saturday, really.

Our crowd of 5,180 was the 3rd highest FA cup 1st round crowd. Can't see the 3 matches tomorrow being bigger than that either. Even Bradford with their 13,000 season ticket holders only had a crowd of 4,000.
