For or against. There have obviously been a fair few over the years.

One that springs to mind whenever I think of Steve Bruce is our 5th goal in a 5-3 win v Birmingham. Fitting end to a crazy game where both teams apparently forgot how to defend. Bruce's reaction sums it up perfectly.

 
I remember one in he Coca Cola Cup (I think) at home against Huddersfield (I think) where Rav (I think) hit the bar, it bounced off the keeper's back and into the net.

Edit: looks like it was the keeper's head.

 
The ball coming off Paul McGrath for an own goal - I always thought it came off his heels. Was there another?

I remember this goal very well. The few agonising seconds between Nemeth getting the ball and it crossing the line always seem to last hours every time I watch it. Most of our current players would definitely have found a way to miss the chance.

It felt like Nemeth was trying his best to!
 
Going to take something special to beat this! There was a version that was backed up with Benny Hill theme tune, but cant find it. Just Adam Forshaw as scorer was shocking enough, but in injury time as well - this only happens against us, not for us surely!
