QuoteWell the positive side from this is that i have had people who normally wouldnt have much interest in football etc asking who do i think scored it, what they thought etc etc.................no such thing as bad publicity!!!
yeah, no doubt at all.
I love the dramatics though: "controversy has erupted".
Anyawy, fair play to those above who said that Keane's swing was what put the pace on the ball. It's unlikely Hunt could ever have hit it that hard with his studs.

saw this on eleven-a-side
I watched it loads of times jsut back in from Italy and its Keanes goal and then when I saw the news report there it confirms it even more. The ball displays all the characteristics of coming off Keanes foot and its his goal. Who says he does not score against the big teams. Get in there.

I don't want to be critical but I reckon if Hunt hit it it would have been in row Z.

Ah Monaghan fan would know more about that than most , boom boom
That video won't save at all for me from RTE's site - RealMedia is such utter toss
Anyway, this is the best screenshot I can get of it, clearly Robbie's touch

Everytime I see it live it looks like Hunts goal, the timing is all wrong for Robbie, he gets there too late.You can't tell much from stills as you have no idea of depth - the ball may look to be on Robbies toe when in reality it is a yard ahead of it.
Verdict - Hunt's goal.
No way, by the laws of physics is it is impossible for it to be hunts goal. There is no doubt that it is Keanes goal. Fair play Hunt played well when he came on and he will get his first goal soon.

I complained about his lack of goals against the big teams!! Looking forward to his next one in 2016. i.e. 7 years, since he last did it against Spain in 2002.Originally Posted by NeilMcD

Did you give out as he scored or did you allow yourself a bit of joy when it went it cause I know I went metal and nearly fell down the steps in the stadium in Bari. Its much more fun to be wrong and have a laugh than be right and be miserable. However you seem to be wrong and be miserable.

I sat there as i had through the rest of the match, I'm a realist and knew that it was a draw, against an extremely poor Italian side with 10 men.
Fair play but I feel a bit sorry for you. As I said not only are you miserable but you are wrong too.

What am i wrong about?
That trap never saw Hunt play for Reading or never went to see Reading play.

So your mood didn't change at all between 86 minutes and 50 seconds and 87 minutes?
Just curious because as an Irish fan mine changed quite a lot, from hoping against time that we'd get at least what we deserved to being elated upon actually seeing the goal go in. I think why I like football so much is that it goes against reason sometimes, it's unscripted and unpredicatable and the sheer unadulterated joy of seeing your team score when it looked least likely is what makes the game stand out from so many other forms of entertainment.
If you showed no emotion whatsoever it suggests to me that you're not a fan at all and that you're purely a wind up merchant determined to irritate those who contribute positively to a good fans forum. Hats off, you do a pretty good job.
I was furious with the Irish performance against San Marino, but as a fan I was a damned sight happier when Stephen Ireland scored than a minute earlier.
Out of interest, how did you feel when Keane equalised in Ibaraki?

He felt Keane should have done better.
This from a man who thinks Northern Ireland is an Island!

"you mean a big one"
"No a normal kit-kat you fat bitch"
Noel Hunt must feel like a right fool now, going on Waterford radio and more or less sayin how great he was and that it was his goal. CLOWN
