Favourite Away Goal

[bcubed]

Gonna throw in Forster v Wrexham from a short corner I think - classic Forster strike

Loved Pog v Chelsea and winning at half time was surreal

Can't separate Doyle v Leicester and ALF v southampton - atmosphere amazing at both games

[parky]

Rasiak at Torquay for me.

The sheer relief that, that game was over made that special.

Church away at Bristol city in McDermott's first game

Another Brizzle candidate: Cisse's belter in the 4-1

[Ingham]

Glen Little at Plymouth - 205/06 for me!

[No Fixed Abode]

DAVE KITSON V BRADFORD CITY AWAY

NO MENTION OF IT

Church away at Bristol city in McDermott's first game

Great shout, what a bounce. Half the stand powers over to the City fans in the adjacent area giving it the big'un. Same with Manset winner the following season.

Tony Rougier against Gillingham gets a shout as well.

Church away at Bristol city in McDermott's first game, Church away at Forest (4-3 game), Kitson scissor kick at Bradford in 2004 or Rasiak at Torquay for me.

There can only be one; Mick Gooding's header away to Burnley in 1993/94 which by his own admission - and Ark Royal will testify to this - the best he has ever scored.

[Terminal Boardom]

Joking apart, the ones that really stand out for me over the years I watched Reading include the following:

Simon Osborn's scoop away v Oldham (94/95)
Scott Taylor's lob away v Brighton (93/94)
Simon Osborn's volley away v Charlton (94/95)
Kevin Doyle's header away v Leicester (05/06) - ok, we would still have got promotion on the day if he hadn't scored but it really gave all of us something to celebrate.
Any of the 3 goals away v Tranmere (94/95) in the play off semi final
Kevin Bremner's header away v Newport County (85/86)

[Toon Toon Blue army]

There are so many good ones that I've forgotten about. Both equalisers at Chelsea on Boxing Day were class, all the goals at Cardiff in the play offs, Doyle against Leicester...

My favourite goes to Harper Vs Palace simply because it was a Friday night, everyone was stood up and a mass bundled occurred. I had bruises on my shins for days.

Kalifa!
Cisse!

And repeat

Great game, even better atmosphere

Colin Gordon away to Chelsea 'League cup' 2nd Leg (87/88 Season)

[sandman]

Not directly at the bottom of the page, you flipping truncheon

Church away at Bristol city in McDermott's first game, Church away at Forest (4-3 game), Kitson scissor kick at Bradford in 2004 or Rasiak at Torquay for me.

You'd have thought he'd have noticed given it was his Lampard oxf*rd buddy who mentioned it.

Anyway,

Scott Taylor against Brighton, November '93. My first away game and sent us top of the league.

Forster against Wigan and also against Sheffield United from the top of the box.

Gylfi against Leicester in his last game for the club, excellent control and a finish as cool as you like.

Colin Gordon away to Chelsea 'League cup' 2nd Leg (87/88 Season)

Which one? The back heel or the bullet header?

Two outright leaders:

Alf's second at Saints - that's the moment I believed we were going to win the league. Mental scenes.

Hunt's at West Ham - see above but replace win the league with going up.

Other highlights:

Alf's first at Saints - no explanation needed really

Gorkks at West Ham - same again

Manset at Brizzle City - that run towards the home fans, we lost my mates bag as we ended up in a different row

Alf's second at Newcastle - finally winning an away game that year, our fans were incredible that day, and this just sent some very drunk people home happy!

Guthrie at Chelsea - TOP OF THE LEAGUE, lower tier was bouncing that day

Edit: forgot Howard and Sig at West Brom - first away win I ever saw, and what a one to see

That goal at Leicester was the same weekend as Reading festival. All the cool kids like NFA and I were there, yet you chose to go to a souless, identikit stadium that we've played at year in, year out to watch us play.

I apologise for not being born until '95.

Darius Henderson's second at Boro surely.
The only goal that caused me to have a mass stadium embrace, a fist fight at the station and to wake up in Newcastle with the hiccups. THOSE WERE THE DAYS.
Im sure we can also come up with a better Jamie Cureton goal than the one at Brentford. He scored an absolute belter at Notts County which made you thought this guy is a natural talent. A natural talent he wasted, of course.
And then there was the own goal from the halfway line at Grimsby. A real nailbiter as it was out of view for 9/10ths of its trajectory. That and bumping into a guy with the real Tourette's afterwards made this trip especially funny. The fact I woke up in somebody else's clothes makes the anecdote even more worthy.

Id also like to mention the 4-3 away to Forest, particularly the last two goals. 'You're not singing anymore' is usually a bit naff - but not that day it wasnt. It was a right ding dong battle off the pitch as well as on.

And the fifth at Burnley on the day where we so brutalised them. The video of it is too extreme for the internet. Just pure bliss in the stands.

Just wanted to show the TC that there were actually goals worth remembering before the 09/10 season.
