Worst Miss in History?

[MrB]

You see plenty of shocking misses over time but surely none can be worse than this one? The 'easier to score' phrase can easilt be applied here!

Malouda's on Sunday against Stoke was pretty shocking....

I can't view youtube at work. There was a miss by a bloke called Roger Davies, who played for Derby in the 70's, I'm sure it was at Stamford Bridge and he sort of fell over the ball about 6 inches from goal.

I remember our own Gary Moore missing from about a yard with a header into the North Bank end. Big Gary ended up in the net, and the ball sadly at the back of the North Bank. It took about 5 minutes to untangle him from the netting.

Hopefully you can see this, took a still of the video. Basically a shot comes off the post and bobbles along the line but he somehow manages to put his foot over the ball and then knocked it in with his hand.

I have seen Daisy miss easier chances B..;)

Given the distance from goal, the scenario demanded Don's prowess. Lethal from half a yard.

Vernon could have scored that!

Vernon could have scored that!

Even Jabo could off.

It was a terrible miss but consider the fact that it had been raining heavily, the pitch was very wet and you can see the ball's bounce in affected by the conditions. It look like Kamara was aiming to meet the ball on what would be its normal bounce and that is what screwed him up.

I thought this was going to be the Scott Vernon collection.
