Goal of the season - 1979/80 Justin Fashanu Norwich City v Liverpool

Norwich try breaking down the Liverpool defense when Fashanu decides to take a massive short cut and simply go from receiving the ball with his back to goal outside of the box to chipping the ball up, swiveling 180 degrees and smacking a curling volley into the top far corner. His Celebration is just as memorable for his modesty. Many people say this player was a huge talent that never lived up to his potential. (Fine quality and with commentary)

On football matters the best goal of the season ever IMO. but the best goal i ever saw was the Terry Mcdermott header to make it 7-0 for Liverpool against Spurs. And im a Tottenham fan

Clough 'was' a great manager, he had flaws though. Making somebody train on their own because they are gay is wrong and not a wise choice in a team sport. Unfortunately this was a view of the time and most people will have agreed. Thankfully we can look back and see how stupid this was.

Clough was an amazing manager, I'd say that he got the decision spot on.

I'd say rather than failing to live up to his potential it would be fairer to say he was ostracised by a homophobic and bigoted sport for the simple fact that he was gay and came out. Clough made him train on his own because of it. What a dick...
