When was the last time we got a thrilling last minute winner?

[MGLCFC]

Kel's penalty in the Community Shield - I was convinced he'd miss it.

My favourite ever game was the 3-3 draw v Arsenal at Filbo. I think it was the early nineties and there were 3 goals in injury time with Walshy getting the late late equaliser.

Claridge. 1996. Wembley.  Limbs.  Injury. Loss of spectacles.  Disorientation. Disbelief. Joy.

 

 

I was with a Newcastle-supporting mate, and I nearly missed the goal because I was bitching to him about O’Neill’s insane decision to bring on Spider Kalak!

Knockhaert v Forest to send us into the play offs

And a week or so later he missed a last minute penalty and Troy Deeney scored Watford’s winner.

Steve Howard, Last minute v Leeds League one……all day long

[MGLCFC]

Not sure if all the details are correct, but we won a League cup game 4 - 2, against Brentford if I remember correctly(I think it was one of the years we went to Wembley). We were 2 -0 down and scored 4 goals in the last 10 minutes.

It was late August 1997 - a week before Princess Diana sadly died in the car crash....

I think you're right.

 

@Parafox was probably there and can verify 

 

Saw it with my own eyes.

 

Ruled out by VAR. (Very Antiquated Referee)

Yet absolutely no reference was made to it in the latest Crown season! (The 3-3 I mean. Diana's death does get a mention)

Yes, I remember this one! If memory serves, the much maligned Mark Venus got one of the goals

Ulloa earthquake 89th minute

Arsenal at home Jan 1976. 1-0 down with 3 minutes to play. An overhead kick from Brian Anderson brings us level and Bob Lee makes it 2-1 with the winner from close range in injury time.

 

Arsenal sent packing back to London with no points.

Can't believe it's 26 years ago!! 

[Walshy5]

Howard v Leeds in League 1 and Vardy v West Brom are the ones that immediately spring to mind.

Remember the Palace goal for Claridge so well, as many have said the focus had been on the bench, we were running out of time to make the goalkeeper substitution, we could see what O'Niell was trying to do but it was looking like there may not be a stoppage to get Kalac on. Then  he's on and we're all discussing the ins and outs of that, when Claridge shoots, time stood still for a second then the brain computes, hang on that has actually gone between the posts, that must mean that......then turned to the stranger next to me and screamed "WE'VE DONE IT! WE'VE DONE IT! WE'VE DONNNNNNNNNNNE IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT AGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" and bear hugged the poor guy before pogoing up and down like Zebedee on steroids, punching the air like a madman swatting flies, it was the most ecstatic surge of celebration I can remember (Hazards goal for Chelsea was more of a nervous shock inducing feeling). Then someone mentioned there were still moments remaining and we realised we had no recognised orthodox goalkeeper on the pitch just some 8 foot 3 guy who owned some gloves (who made Ward look solid and reliable in comparison) so we pleaded to Palace "Don't shoot, don't shoot".

It was a banger, the place went crazy. 

25/30 yarder, to win it 1-0. December 1989 and I believe it was the very last game of the 80s.

[Paninistickers]

I've got another!!! 

 

Perez scoring an own goal for us away at Newcastle. Absolute delirium in O'Neils in town

We don't score many goals from outside the box anymore. I can only think of Winks at QPR this season?

Martyn Waghorn against Bristol City is one that'll live in the memory 

Remember teenage me being absolutely buzzing about that one, and being strangely fixated on him beating ex-England keeper David James to do so. 

 

It was also during the Ricardo era. Not the current one, the washed up goalie. We don't talk about THAT Ricardo era.
