The 2nd goal yesterday was goal of the season in my opinion. The build up play, vision from Cox and run/finish from Marc was brilliant.

We all appreciate individual goals from outside the area but yesterdays goal was such a good team goal. When you consider this is the same set of players that were playing hoof ball not so long ago, you have to simply applaud the type of goal it was. Most fans were probably convinced that we really couldn't produce something like that.

Then factor in the pitch. We are constantly told that teams can't play good football on it and yet we played some wonderful stuff yesterday.

Then also consider the team it was against. Not many teams will create a goal like that against one of the best defences in the league. We carved them open on numerous occasions with brilliant pieces of play.

I'm just so thankful that I'm starting a positive thread like this. I never thought I would do a month ago.
Thank you Powell and co.

So what do you think?

Is it goal of the season so far?
 
Lenny against Bury was pretty special. As you say, totally different goals.

100% agree with you, and both I and London Blue said the same during the game.

London Blue also was quite correct when he guessed that the highlights would not do the goal justice and would not include most of the build up.

This was my preferred type of goal of the season - it's a team game and whilst i love the spectacular a team goal will win it for me every time.
 
What I liked about the goal was our two strikers combining where it really matters. Just shows what they are capable of when they get in those areas. More like that please.

Yes we thought the same. Watching the Football League show, sorry Goal Rush, I was left disappointed but I knew it would happen. They left half the build up out. Oh well at least we know how good it was.

As others have stated, there have been a few fantastic, speculative efforts this season. I do enjoy such goals too. But there's something special about a really good team goal, especially in the lower leagues. It doesn't happen too often.

Hopefully it's a sign of things to come. When you think we have a great passer and finisher in Wordsworth to come back, things are really looking good.
