He did score against Portsmouth, and two in one game against Fulham. A couple of sending offs and that was it.

Is there a thread for crap players who once scored a great goal, I can think of others. Indeed I did the same myself at school....

Alan Kernaghan.

Danny Mills, amazing strike

Gerry Creaney had a decent goal at Maine Road. Or perhaps that was a dream.

Mills and Kernaghan's were both screamers, and completely unexpected.

Nigel de Jong.

I remember Psycho having a go at Bernardo after one of the sending offs, saying he dived. Might have been against the rags. At the time Ferguson was as usual defending his players in similar situations.

Kare Ingebrigsten. Played for us at a time when you had to have a Norwegian in your team. Think it scored a cracker for us and that was it. He went on loan for the remainder of his very lengthy contract.

No, but he only scored one goal...wait, I think he scored in a cup match as well.

I was referring to his screamer out of nowhere that was unexpected.

Was it Kare who scored four against Leicester in the cup? That must have been a considerable chunk of his goals for us.

I thought it was Leicester but I dont remember 4 of them...you might be right. Either way we only bought him because Norway were doing well at the time and teams were snapping them up. Swindon had Fjortoft.

I wish him well. The first few months of his reign were some of my my favourite times as a City fan.

It went all down hill after that but he was working with his hands tied behind his back and gave a lot of academy players the chance denied to them under Keegan. The football was awful but better teams than that side have been relegated. We would be in Leeds position now if we had gone down that season. Saying that, the angriest I have ever been after a City game was the Blackburn FA cup loss. Beyond miserable.

Would I want him back? No chance but he is a likeable honest bloke who I wish well.

Fuck me. Stevie Ireland still had hair.

Just looked it up and it was a 4-1 win with Ingebrigsten getting three. Those were his only goals for City.

Was one from the halfway line? Or something like that

Yeah it was. It was a cracker. I couldn't tell you about the other two. He was our Wayne Bridge of that era...spent the majority of his contract on loan with us paying the wages.

Love the bloke. Couldn't believe we got Psycho when we did, even though he was on his last legs. He then went to keep us up even though I was expecting more.

What's not to like. Good luck to the bloke.

Beefy I like Pearce too. Most of us on here probably do. I like the fact he made the very best of the ability he had, and made a good career in the game. I like the fact he seems a salt of the earth kind of bloke..I like the fact he likes the stranglers cos i do too but the fact is he is at best a lower level first team coach/assistant manager...if he gets forest promoted next season ill eat a pair of socks.

I remember the game well as they changed the time and date so much I drove 200 miles to get there on the wrong day. Had to get a room in the Peak District. It was also the only P/L game that's ever kicked off in the morning (11.45 I seem to remember).

The one from the half way line was actually Alan Kernaghan.
