...was on Soccer Am's showboats of the season.....only lower league moment in the whole lot i think.

Did he win any official awards for it, like Legaue one goal of the season or something?

Not sure but he should have done if he didn't.

Soccer Saturday have just been bumming his goal as well, up there with goal of the season in the country...add some zeros to the price tag

They were just doing a review of the top Premiership goals on Soccer Saturday....and at the end they picked out Cox's goal (on its own as an exception) and showed it three times in a row. All 5 pundits agreed it was the top goal of the season in any league!

Makes me feel proud I was there.....

I was suprised to see Cox's goal get some attention on another forum I post on, in a 'Goal of the Season' thread. It was actually the poster's inspiration to start the thread 8-)

What thwe fuck were you doing on another forum you judas bastard?

Its about time that goal got the credit it deserves. I could go to Swindon for another 30 years and probably wont see a better goal.

The Football League awards decided to ignore L1 and L2 totally. You could call me a bit cynical, but its definately part of an agenda to distance the Championship from Leagues 1 and 2. When the league talks about big changes, prepare for our league to be cut further adrift.

Discussing goals of the season?

Spencer - I agree about the Championship trying to distance themselves from L1 and L2. Lets just hope we make it up there before we get cut adrift!

Saw that...also said Millwall have sold 50,000 thousand tiks for the playoff final!!!..thats an amazing amount.

This goal was as good as it gets,in 40 years of watching football 27 of those watching my beloved STFC, this was just outstanding and its getting the recognition it deserves imo.

Max Rushden said it was the best goal he has ever seen.

...and that's coming from a Cambridge fan!

Praise indeed.

Somebody reads the Dugout by the looks of it.

Still an amazing goal

Correctamundo, Nemo.

I was there and didn't think it was that special at the time. I had another look at it recently and I was wrong, not sure if its the best I've seen at the CG but its definitely in the top 3. Not sure it will make much difference to his value though, it didn't help much with Fjortoft.

It wasn't that good. I've scored better goals down the park.

Same here - last summer, the ball fell down behind me, and I backheel-volleyed the ball back over my head and then volleyed it in. Best goal thats ever been scored in this town I reckon.

Fitton > Hardman

Best goal ever scored in the SN1 post-code region I'd warrant.

Not cynical at all, that was precisely why they came up with the ludicrous "Championship" rebranding, so they could market "The Championship" as some kind of rival to "The Premiership". Oh, and then there's Leagues 1 and 2, the embarrassing backward cousins kept hidden away in the corner in case they make a show of themselves in front of the guests. They've already started negotiating separate standalone second-tier sponsorship deals for the Championship, expect the gap to keep on widening

An example of how the Championship are distancing themselves from L1 and L2 and keeping large
ammounts of monies to themselves, would be Birminghams parachute payments.

As a result of Birmingham's promotion back to the Premiership,they won't need the parachute payments,
so the Football League have divided the 15 million between the rest of the league clubs.

Unfortunately,it's not quite as straight forward as that, with  Championship clubs receiving a little over
half a million each.League 1 clubs receive 70 grand each,whilst League 2 clubs half as much again.

At the FL Awards they had the best goal of the year (i.e. 2008), and since Coxy scored it in Feb '09, he's a shoe in for next years award.
