I would like to vote Atkinson but I don't have any memory of it so that would be cheating.

I'm going for Ashley's for the sheer exhileration. That result will stay with me for a very long time.

Didn't think Dalian's was that good. Too understated. And the 'Well that's me' raising of the eyebrows is a bit crappy. Along the same lines as Bentley scoring for Blackburn and running arouns shouting something like, That's What I'm on About'. Or something like that. Its all a bit too desperate to prove that those type of goals are the usual for such a skillful player when they're usually just a one-off that lead to disappointment.

Yeah I did mean best celebration..just it happened to be the best goal as well! If I'd have been the bloke with the umbrella every room of my house would have that in a huge frame on the wall. Its almost Iconic!!

For the goal Atkinson all life.
For the celebration BJ.

[Mouse Potato]

You just can't beat a celebration BJ

Tony Morley's celebration where he seems to go mad at Ron Saunders and rages at the bench...who was that against?  That's the one for me.

Looking at Atkinson's goal once more, Umbrella Man doesn't half look like a long haired version of Randy Lerner...was our Chairman a young, happy-go-lucky Villa supporting student at this time?

Not my favourite, but Atkinson's was quality for more than just his reaction. The goal itself was goal of the decade, but the bloke who decided yep, quality goal, and now I need to keep young Dalian dry makes it.

Before seeing the options and having seen the question Dalian came to mind immediately.  So for me it's Atkinson at Wimbledon.

They all kind of get lost in the heat of a derby win but I always enjoy Gabby's celebrations following his inevitable goals against the rags. From the thumbs pointing to his name/skipping combo in '07 to the cool-as-you-like cupped hands behind his ears in the recent quarter-final, you can tell he likes winding them up as much as we all do.

[Dave Cooper please]

I actually really hate the "hands cupped behind the ears" or the "shhh" gesture, especially when it's done in front of our own supporters!
It's a bit shit.

I don't remember us ever playing Tamworth.

That cupped-ear celebration from Livingstone really pissed me off.

[Dave Cooper please]

That cupped-ear celebration from Livingstone really pissed me off.

You heartless bastard, everyone knows that Livingstone had a genetic condition which meant he was born with no ears.
