Sevennil Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 I see! ^^^Clearly the winner. Agreed...but only due to the sublime control by the No.4 on the wing in the build-up. Hilarious!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

youngsy Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 Hard to determine the greatest ever but five from Scotland games stand out for me. James McFadden v France 2007, John Greig v Italy 1965, Bobby Murdoch v West Germany 1969, Alan Gilzean v England 1964, Archie Gemmill v Holland 1978.

Monkey Tennis Posted October 16, 2013 Share Posted October 16, 2013 Too many of the Scotland goals being suggested were important or last ditch rather than particularly brilliant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShawfieldAggro Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 Isnt the occasion and circumstances the goals were scored important??? I'd say the measure of a 'great' goal would be the thought process and pre meditation that go into it. Which i guess would only occur in an important match.....any diddy could score a one off peach in a friendly but be found wanting when the pressures on. But its all about opinions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But its all about opinions I see your point, but great goals, rather than memorable ones is what the thread' s about. It started with a goal scored in a Glasgow Cup final or something equally daft. I agree that context can matter, but suggesting for instance that Greig' s against Italy in the 60s was 'great' in itself strikes me as an excessive use of licence.

ShawfieldAggro Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 Concur with that as an example, actually i try to even water-down the enthusiasm which people salivate about gemmils goal on the basis that the whole competition was a fucking horror story. Maloneys free kick could also come into that....couldnt tell u the last time we scored direct from a fk, but in context, to me it meant zero after the previous six or seven outings....

The whole move leading up to Greigs goal in the Italy game is what made it such a great goal. From goalkeeper Bill Brown giving the ball to Baxter, to Bremner, to Greig, to Baxter and the return to Greig makes it a great goal. From Brown to Greig scoring no Italian got near the ball. It was a superb move and finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a superb move and finish. I stand corrected if it was indeed a great back to front team goal. I'd always thought it was just a last ditch low finish. I will however bow to your greater knowledge of the period in question though Youngsy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLip69 Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 Got to agree with Youngsy, Greigs goal against Italy was a belter. Dalglish against Wales at Anfield, pretty sure he won the ball in midfield and laid it off then was in the box when Buchan's cross came in. An absolute peach of a header. A Charlie Nicholas goal against Switzerland I think, he seemed to swap feet as it dropped to him and he just sort of lobbed it into the net. Difficult not to pick any of my own team as that's who I watch most, Motherwell and Scotland, dont have much interest in any other teams to be honest. Psycho's 30 yarder in the semi against Celtic in '91 sticks out, as does Wee Dougie's header in the same match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
