He scoreed from a Steven Hunt corner and vice versa, which must be some
sort of record? (Brothers scoring from a corner supplied by a brother).

i am confident that Hunts backflip coupled with Robbies forward roll (with post-roll arrow shooting) can be a celebration combination that will get us to the WC.

Interesting to note Reading fans want Hunt to start up front either at the expense of Doyle or Lita.

Stephen's goal was not from a corner

Doyle will probably be gone at the end of the week... and Lita is one of the laziest players Ive ever seen

True but he provided the assist though. Noel is the only white player I can recall doinig a black-flip.

Maybe its an homage to Robbie of some sort. He did have to use hands though, whereas most of the Africans who can do them generally have to worry about going to far on the flip. Still, pretty impressive for a white guy...I can't even do a cartwheel (though I am 6'4'' which surely makes it harder)

Conjures up the image of a photo of yourself and David Connolly with a caption reading "Myself and my hero, David Connolly (out of shot)" :D :D

He done a class one a few years back in Tolka. I think he ran towards the Ballybough End and used the hoardings/fence to assist with his flip.
Kinda ran, jumped onto the fencing and back fliped off it in on manouver!

"White men can't back-flip" - the less successful sequel.

Noel Hunt has been doing front flips since he played for Rovers http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GlasP4H_YBA

First time I seen him doing that back flip was when he was in the Irish Schoolboys team... he was head and shoulders the best player in that team too
