The Sheff Utd player is running away with it but since none of the goals have been filmed it's a bit of a pointless vote

Nevermind the finish. Great little flick over the top and round the corner from the midfielder. Abdi esque!

At halftime against Palace They showed a lot of the academy goals down on the screens in the concourse . It was really good football all played on the floor and it really does encourage for the long term.
That EPL thing that some moaned about that we didnt pay £3 million or whatever to be part of looks a complete joke. I see some clubs have only played one game all season and the rest have played two games.Whats that all about ? am I missing something here ? (wouldnt be the first time ).

And your missing nothing, it would have been putting our kids in shop front so the bigger clubs could come and steal them off of us. No more the fools

Good goal but in this day and age I find it hard to believe that we still take on such one footed players.

When the Pozzos come and the academy was downgraded there were hundreds of posts on the matter.
Up above is testimony to the total football philosophy running through the club along with a peach of a goal. We have with this 15 comments.
Think the silence speaks volumes.
