Ah right, this was from about 20 yards out!
John Lester with a header from just inside the halfway line for the Drogs v Pats, I'd say around 2003.
No cameras were there I think.
You've got no fans.
Andy Myler with a lob against Limerick from half way the same weekend as David Beckham.
Apparently the Limerick keeper was doing toe touches on the edge of his area at the time. That's presumably why Beckham's goal is one of the greatest ever and Myler's isn't.
He was about 30 yards out and the keeper was on the edge of this box. Hardly top class...
On the Fahey v Crowe debate I think the fact that Fahey's was scored against probably the best keeper I've seen in this league edges it a small bit. But both are unbelievable strikes

Donal Broughan vs Finn Harps in 2002.
A mate of mine was a youths keeper around that time and told me that Broughan tried it again in training about 100 times and didn't even get close.
Always thought Fahey's goal was overrated. Great awareness and technique, but when a 35-yard shot with no shape or dip hits the middle of the goal, it goes down as the keeper's error.
A leading authority on League of Ireland football since 2003. You're probably wrong.
