God I remember those Shels shirts. That style was all the rage at one point. What an awful time to be alive.
Not a bad effort from Paul "Storky" Carlyle here (first goal):

That was a bit special alright, although i though it hit the underside of the bar and Crowe rolled it into an empty net?
Best LoI goal I've ever seen was from Paddy McCourt for Rovers against Bray in Dalymount going back about 7/8 years ago, world class. He actually scored 2 wonder goals that day.
Not sure what my favourite Bray goal is being honest, always remember Pip Keogh scoring a brilliant over head kick in Terryland against Galway
Super Eddie Gormley volley against Sligo in the FAI Cup Jan 2001 i think it was out in the field of dreams! Caught it on the money and straight into the top corner down at bowling alley end!
Lets talk about six baby
Found this...it was March 2002

But this credits it to Crowe....I never thought I'd see it again, yet on Friday night last at the Carlisle Grounds, Bray with the chips stacked against us, out of the bag came this gem.
2 - 0 down at half time. Down to ten men. pulled a goal back with 18 minutes left. An equaliser not given by the linesman. Final throw of the dice by Bohemian boss Stephen Kenny and he sends on out of favour Paul Byrne (ex-Celtic).
Byrne recieves the ball from defending a corner 10 yards inside the Bohemians half. takes two steps close to the right touchline. Looks up. Sees the keeper off his line. Swings the right peg at the ball, concentration, got to get this right. Not much time left. Floats the ball into the Bray half. Rising. Rising. Starts to dip as it comes over the 18 yard line. Keeper starts to look like he's struggling. The ball starts to come down. The keeper scrambles. The ball comes down. The keeper stretches. The ball clears the outstretched right hand of the keeper and hits the crossbar. Down down down. Over the line. and back out onto the post. Beautiful. Poetry.
Bray 2 - 2 Bohemians

Remember that game we beat shels 4-1 way way way ago, one of my personal favourite goals is the one Eric Levine scored, when the shells keeper kicked the ball into his arse and it bounced straight in
Keegans and Kirbs goals in the FAI cup final will never be forgotten either..
He blocked it down and rolled it in!

Sporting F*ck All!
Liam O'Brien's goal for the Hoops against Bohs in October 1985, into the Milltown Rd end. Pure genius.
Would love to see both goals Annand scored in that game, vs Kilkenny. I thought it was drogs or cobh, but showgies convinced me I was wrong!

This one has to be up there as well - best goal ever scored by a player with his face
"Even if the wind stops to blow
Even if the sea ceases to flow
Even if the sun ceases to rise
The name of Sligo Rovers will shine and shine forever like the morning star glittering in the sky."

Best goal against Pats I've seen was also at Dalymount - Geln Crowe with a screamer:

Two of the best strikes you'll see anywhere.
Out for a spell, got neglected, lay on the bench unselected.
