The Sun campaigned that 17 secs was the wrong time, as the clock should have been reset and the league official timed the goal at 9.97 secondsOriginally Posted by dcfc_1928
Surely if it was the quickest goal EVER in the League, some online article would mention it.
Someone else have a search and try and find info about it.

If it was a Cork goal that was quickest atleast HALF of the Cork members of Foot.ie would be on here tellin' us about it. "We're the quickest - biy!"Originally Posted by Dyl10
Lads, AFAIK ... it was a Bohs player (home game not in Dalyer??) and 13 seconds and it was record (it stands counted) and it was about 20-30 year ago from what i remember. Was on SportsCall for a few weeks about three years ago trying to confirm it.
If it was scored recently ... we'd all know who it was in fairness.
The SFAI are the governing body for grassroots football in Ireland, not the FAI. Its success or the lack of is all down to them.

Cork City 2-3 Waterford United
Waterford got the better of Cork City in tonights Munster derby at Turners Cross. City took the lead after 30 seconds when Kevin Doyle picked up John O'Flynn's pass, turned and shot low past Waterford goalkeeper Dan Connor from 12 yards.
Kom Igen, FCK...
I think Donal Goldan scored for us against Derry in the
last game of the 94/95 season after about 13 seconds

I don't think there has been a quicker one since.

Funny how all the candidates for quickest goal happened in the last ten years or so, and nothing in the previous 70 years came near it!
No Elvis, Beatles or the Rolling Stones
In 1977
I would need confirmation from an official source but Kieran O'Reilly's goal v Monaghan last April was timed at 9 seconds?
''and I for one welcome our new insect overlords''
Pizza it is then, but how far do records go back for this? 10/20 years??Originally Posted by lofty9
Kieran O Reilly - from Cobh Ramblers website
Leading scorer in the Eircom League first Div for the 1st part of the season with possibly the fastest goal in league history with a 14 sec goal against Monaghan.

We scored a really fast one against Dungdalk in the last game we played at Boriel before they got into their fetish stage. I rem, 2nd touch of the ball and our lad was at the goal mouth and it was in the back of the neck. cant rem details coz near peed myself with excitement but I know it was around 6-10 seconds.

Came across this thread this evening looking for a goal on google quicker than Funstons for Harps last night.
The fact that Peter Hutton has scored one quicker has sort of annoyed me.
https://kesslereffect.bandcamp.com/album/kepler - New music. It's not that bad.
Its was actually put up on YouTube a few weeks ago after doing a quick search.
Not sure YouTube existed in 2006
Kilkenny 0-2 Limerick in 1991-1992 season.
Barry Ryan scored after 7 seconds (from Kilkenny's kick off).
I am not sure that FAI have official records though. I was actually the poster who started this thread nearly 10 years ago looking for official records.

Well past time to create a list, then?
Based on the thread so far, we have (with lots of gaps to plug, help please!!!):
Scorer Team Time (secs) Match Date
Glen Crowe Boh ? Bray v Boh 2001
? Mon 6-10 Dundalk v Monaghan ?
Barry Ryan Kkenny 7 Kilkenny v Limerick 1991/2
Peter Hutton Derry 7/9 Shamrock v Derry * 17 Dec 2002
Kieran O'Reilly Cobh 9/14 Cobh v Monaghan Apr 2005
Glen Crowe Boh 9.97/10 UCD v Bohs ** Feb 2001
John Bacon Derry 12 Derry v Dundalk early 90s
AN Other Boh 13 Boh v ? *** ca.1985-1995
Donal Goldan ATFC 13 AT v Derry Apr/May 1995
Kevin Doyle CC 15/30 CCFC v Waterford 5 Apr 2004
John McDaid Derry 16 ?? ca. 1988
* in Richmond Pk, ** Should that be Bohs v UCD? *** not in DP; where?
Crowe v Bray cannot be 2001, as the only Bray v Bohs that calendar year was 0-0 (30/09/01). It could conceivably be 17/12/00 (3-1) or 24/03/02 (2-2), or if it was a Cup replay 12/02/02 (0-4). braywanderers.com is down at the moment for maintenance, I'll check when it's back!
And there are wide variations in some of the claimed fast goals, especially O'Reilly and Doyle.
Lets get this one done!
How do you do a table here????
