In terms of importance it will always be Dickov's goal. I don't care if we win the Champions Leauge in the last minute, it still won't be as important.

My fav City goal is one that kinda got lost in the ITV Sports disaster. Goaters 2nd against Gillingham away the game after we clinched promotion. It was the game where Keegan dropped the news randomly in the interview that Peter Schmeichel was signing for us.

Bernabias reverse backheel chip is one of the most audacious pieces of skill I have seen and the Goats volley was a cracker.

The Goats second with the assist from Gary Neville is my second favourite.

Non City - Zidanes bicycle kick in the Champions Leauge final at Hampden. I adored Zlatans forth against England but it was in a friendly. For Zidane to do that in a Chamions League final when the game was tied at 1-1 is something else.

95th minute. Hopeful punt from the halfway line. Defender on his shoulder. Stops the ball dead & pokes it in the corner all with his left foot. On a technical level one of the best goals I've ever seen.



I've seen Richard Dunne do that in the last minute, from 20 yards out.

VK's header against the filth during the home derby.

I was as loud that day as I was during Aguero's Tyler orgasm.

Non-City, well anything from Henry or Le Tissier, probably Henry's swivel volley from 25 yards or Le Tissier's flick up freekick.

The 3rd in the 6-1. It's not often over the years we've been able to toy with them but we just kept hold of the ball, upped the tempo and played sublime one touch from halfway to back o the net.

I think Barry v Southampton is almost as funny as Pollock v Qpr.

Favourite City (emotions aside) is probably Phelan's pitch-length run in the cup. Like someone said earlier in the thread, I watched Kinky's goal on Youtube a few weeks back, and it seems to have lost a lot of sheen in my eyes.

Non City: either Di Canio's volley or this:

If Gillie was in goal, I'm sure he'd've saved it...

Just has to be the Aguero moment to win the league title for me closely followed by our 6th in front of a half empty swamp in the derby demolition ..... both iconic moments which will last forever in the memory ;-)

I think it was his 4th or 5th appearance for us. He almost scored on his debut vs Arsenal in the dying minutes. I think we were 2-1 down.
