Strictly according to the rules of association football that cannot result in a goal - it should not have counted. However it did and is still regarded as one of Small Heaths greatest moments.Yup, should have been a corner. Problem was Enks reaction, he obviously didn;t know the rules. He should have just confidently picked it up and threw it towards the corner flag, wagging his finger saying he never touched it.Talk about an incident that completely destroyed a promising goalkeeper's career.and didn't Pete get a welcome to the Sty wanker sign and slap around the face too ?UTVThe Doc

Small time club, small time newspaper
Didn't the ref (Ellary?) try and bullshit his way out of it by saying it touched the bottom of his boot?
It was definitely offside though. I also remember De La Cruz hitting the crossbar as well, so it wasn't all one way despite what the Mail would have you believe. If they want to reminisce about a real hammering though they could always talk about the 5-1 scoreline.
