BC54 VFC is correct, although looking it up doesn't count!  :P

Our only goal in 11 games was Regis scoring in a 1-0 win at home to Oldham. And we thought it was bad under McLeish!

Joe, that was the match after the Norwich game previously mentioned. After that Sheff Weds game we actually scored 9 in 3 against Chelsea, Spurs and Liverpool, which was bizarre considering the long run of non scoring we'd just gone through.

Didn't a keeper have an OG against him?

Yeah .... Enckleman.

That was credited to Mellberg not Enckleman weren't it.

Sticking with that season, who was top scorer for us in ALL competitions in 1991/92?

I've already claimed Bosnich as a keeper with OG. No idea if it's right though as Legion did the typical teacher thing of asking a question and then going on holiday for three months.

As you can't score from a throw in even though it was on target it can not be "awarded" to Mellberg.

Isn't it in the record books as an Encks OG? Even though he never touched it.

Shouldn't have been. Enckelman compounded the error by chasing it as it was rolling in, probably leading David Fucking Elleray to believe he'd touched it.

Was it Dwight Yorke?

Another question. In the premier league era, who is the only Villa player to have scored directly from a corner?

Yes, his LC goals put him in first place.

Staunton?

It was Staunton versus Palace wasn't it.  1-1, think Southgate scored for them.

Ridgewell must've scored an og


I think its ogs while still with us not ogs for us after they have left.

Sure he scored a few while with us, making it doubly hilarious when he did it for them

I was at that match - remember being in one of the front rows of the old Trinity.

I'd add Craig Gardner to the own goal list - he managed to notch a few didn't he?

Laursen scored one against Liverpool as well, I think in the same season that Gardner scored one against Man Utd.
