Without question the greatest ever goal I have seen - having gone to see county hammer Bradford 7-1 ( including a Len White hat trick ) I expectantly went to a packed EP to hopefully see County repeat their goal scoring extravaganza against Barnsley - little did I know we were about to see the wonder goal if all wonder goals - when the ball arrowed its way to the top corner of the visitors net, there was a momentary stunned silence around EP before the noise from a delighted county crowd exploded around the ground - the fact that this was also the winning goal was almost irrelevant If only there had been a cameraman or video team in place to record this moment of footballing magic - unfortunately not - so those of us who were fortunate enough to have been behind the goal in the CE that night need only close our eyes and relive the memory of a genius goal scored by a county genius player
