top 3 bizzare goals conceded

[JOHNNY REEVES]

no1 Huddersfields 2nd at swindon.
simon cox has a penalty to equalise, the goalie saves it ,boots it down the field to their striker who fires it into the net.
no2. leeds have a free kick just after we equalise,its shot tameley over the wall for an easy catch for smith only for smith to move to his left and fumble the ball into the goal.
no3. yesterdays rovers goal ifil cuts out the ball it falls to amankwa who lashes it into the rovers player,the ball rebounds past smith and just inside the post.
At that point i thought we were doomed,not the luckiest of seasons.

Reeve's own goal against P'boro tops the list for me

[Reg Smeeton]

 A goal which sticks in my mind, was v ColU when Kingy's side was on a losing streak. They got a free kick early doors, and I think Izzet, took it stubbed his foot and miss kicked it....it dribbled towards Grieminck, who let it through his legs.  It didn't have enough power though to reach the goal, and I think Scott Mcleish nipped in behind to finish it off.

 We rescued a point through Sabinhio and Gurney, which probably saved King his job.

I don't remember many bizarre goals conceded, did Andy Nicholas once score with a cracking diving header into his own net?

I do remember us 'scoring' a bizarre one though.

It was vs Bury waaaaaay back in '79, their keeper performed a great diving save before throwing the ball into his own net.......

It was in front of a sympathetic Town end on a very muddy pitch.

I was 6 and sat in the upper tier of the 'hazardous' shrivvy road stand....ahh the memories.

And we won 8-0....before beating Arsenal 4-3....great side we had then.

8-0! Ah yes I remember that now, I think that was about my tenth ever Town game, I thought they'd all be like that.....

Think your child's memory may have played a trick on you here...Bury didn't score an OG that game.

Really? I could've sworn thats what happened.... or perhaps the goalie purely let it slip through his hands - and 30 years of excitement has hyped that memory into a huge drama of the goalie chucking it into the net.....

Give it another 30 and I'll be regaling the story about how a Bury keeper once threw the ball at the ref then volleyed the rebound into his own net before dropping his shorts in front of an awed Town End.....

[Arch Stanton]

Right, I've spoken with my Dad who was also at the Bury drubbing and he does indeed remember that game and goal.

Apparently the keeper did a diving save and then just when it looked like he had it under control he let it squirm through his fingers and it dribbled over the line.... so my idea that he threw it into the back of the net was waaaaay past the mark.

Just thought you'd all like to know in case any of you were desperately seeking closure.

This is the best own goal...

I was at 2 of these 3 games. The Huddersfield one was so frustrating as we'd just missed the penno!

[suttonred]

I was at reading v Swindon, very early eighties i think, when both goalies scored own goals in a 1-1 draw, that was easily the bizzarest double i've seen.

Anyone remember Charlton away in 2000? They were top, we were bottom and our goal was probably one of the most bizarre the Valley has ever seen. I can't remember the exact details as we were down the other end, but I think Dean Keily pretty much threw the ball in the net.

Charlton should have won about 7-1 that day.
