hirstys_achilles Posted September 9, 2022 Share Posted September 9, 2022 Just now, Emerson Thome said: There was two, the Wolves link above, and another against Watford a few years later. The Watford one is similar, run-up like a goal kick and belt it into the top left - although it wasn't quite as close to the top corner. Just checked my Wednesday diary. I was at both games. Only remembered 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's be 100% totally honest Striker gets ball and heads towards goal Pressman gets ready Striker knows it's Kevin Pressman in goal Striker shoots - low on the ground - to either side of Pressman GOAL That was and will always be a pure fact Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hirstys_achilles Posted September 9, 2022 Share Posted September 9, 2022 No way was pressman that easy to score against. Sorry owlstalk but you never going to convince me that he was so easy to score against. As someone said it may have been a weakness. But in no way was it a certain goal if the poo was low either side of him. If it was a weakness he made up for it in lots of other areas. Some of the best saves i have seen from a Wednesday keeper was made by pressman. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was a great shot stopper above waist height Lets not be rewriting history though as back when he was playing his weaknesses at low either side of him was a huge ongoing discussion point Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
