Forbury Lion A few others not listed that are worthy of mention:

Jamie Cureton's thunderbolt from the centre circle
Caskey v Bournemouth
I don't remember who scored this one or who the opponents were, but in our 106 season we had a corner and the ball boy/girl places the ball in the area and Glen Little ran up the byline and didn't stop, he just booted the ball and it into the box and the opposition and most of the Reading players were caught napping and it results in a goal.

Matt Mills og when he was playing against us.

No, I mentioned that one before. Try reading

Sorry, I didn't recognise it from the description - for some reason I thought he scored one vs Sheff Weds.

No, I'm sorry. You're probably right.

Cureton v Bristol Rovers was another good one. 2 x ear cups to a full South Stand

Long's second against villa in THAT MATCH

At the time I just felt like the football club could have beat Barcelona if they had come down. Funny what half an hour or so can do....

:oops:

Forster vs Wigan is the correct answer.

Kevin Doyle's first goal vs West Ham in 06/07 which put us 4-0 up inside the first 40 mins. Shorey's jinky run from left-back to right-wing was special with even Steve Coppell on his feet applauding and smiling.

Caskey v Bournemouth is a good shout.

The Sidwell one-two goal against Villa was special as well, he was such a class act that season.

Foz's goal against Wigan in 2001 natch, but I fondly remember his late equalizing goal in the 3-3 thriller against Bournemouth in the last league game that ended their play-off hopes.

This goal http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gPxBikbaEQs on 6 mins by Lita had me enjoying football more than I've ever enjoyed football.

Manchester Utd, at our place, as equals in an FA Cup replay. We're 3 nil down in 10 minutes and then show immense character to fight back. Had Gunarsson's effort from the edge of the box gone in (7mins) then THAT would have been my favourite goal ever.

1) Forster v Wigan
2) Lita v Palace
3) Harper v Liverpool
4) Rougier v Oxford (chucking it down that day; resulting in everyone scrambling for the upper tiers of the Mad Stad) late winner from rouge remember it like it was yday and went bloody mental.

How could the 150,000 people who were there that night forget that he hit it over his shoulder from inside the Mad Stad centre circle into the top corner of the the Tilehurst End goal.
