clud17 Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 I'm sure he is the first Dutchman to have it over so he can still go in the history books. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mountain Owl Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 The clock incident with Sam Ellis will be one everybody remembers who was there. I think he also made the North stand roof on a seperate occasion. Totally different player to Joost Sam only had one way out of defence and that was "Clear yer Lines and kick the ball as far away as possible".

It was at fulham where they had a guy in a boat collecting balls on a match day , not sure now with the new roof on their stand he was in the shoot annual and think football focus or saint & greaves , now that was a proper football tv show , 80's tv also remember the glass going through at the crows nest ( triangle ) early 80's might have even been the coventry game that hodgy cost the bookies tons of money when Steve ogr kicked it over him from his box ...

Sonny Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 Claude Dielna was a master at kicking the ball really high #godisone #felttrilby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hey dude Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 Memory plays strange tricks but pretty sure I saw Larry May head the ball over the North Stand. Twice. One a defensive effort the other from one of our corners. AnyOne out there to back this up? He was an extraordinary talented player to be fair.

Rentaghost Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 Anyone remember that cup game a few year ago, when I ball went out the ground the. About 30 balls came flying back over. Not sure who it was, but was pretty funny, although totally staged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can anyone recall the last time a ball found its way up there from the foot of a Wednesday player ? Im sure JJ has done it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whatahoot Posted September 13, 2017 Author Share Posted September 13, 2017 I noticed that not one flag flew on the North Stand v Brentford. Strange, anyone know the reason why ? If they are not putting flags up there, that ball that Joost put up there will be on the roof for a while, we can't afford that. While we are on an oddball thread, whats happened to the Henderson relish recently ? Need that putting back on the menu tootsweet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A feat never surpassed since then,... A feat that defied the laws of vectors and gravity,... A feat that still gives me never ending nightmares replayed over and over again in my head! I must have been stood near you. For a different thread was he our worst ever striker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My jism when Antonio scored in the game I can't remember but it was famous (both the game and my wee wee tail-shot technique) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
