The contenders for the 1980-81 Match of the Day goal of the season competition, won by Aston Villa's Tony Morley for his solo goal against Everton.
Other contenders are Ian Edwards, Terry McDermott, Gary Chivers, Paul Mariner, Terry Cochrane, Ivan Golac, Alexandr Chivadze, Garth Crooks and
Ricky Villa (from the FA Cup semi-final, voting had finished before his outstanding FA Cup winner against Man City).
I'm guessing this was done prior to that seasons cup final(s) because there were a couple of goals (Villa's winner, of course, and the oft forgotten Steve Mackenzie volley) that would have shoe ins for the top 10.

That strike by Garth Brooks was incredible.
