To be honest, Goodwin was probably marginally the lesser of two evils given the state that Woodward got Barkingside into the next season. Could have been us. But I agree the whole AGM thing was a farce from start to finish. You're thinking of Bradley - although Charlie had his moments, like turning up for the replay with his girlfriend, who apparently was an eligible voting member even though he hadn't even met her when the first AGM was held ...

 

just think, by blowing the whistle on the first meeting you might have saved the club!

I suppose that will cost me a drink on Saturday. I am sure you must have a little black book full of anecdotes such as that! Then again I cannot imagine you doing black.....I reckon you have a book but bound in leather with a picture of the Monarch of the Glen or Turner's Fighting Temeraire emblazoned on the cover!

The funniest goal I ever saw has been reported by me on another EFC thread some time ago.

 

The last game at Walthamstow Avenue ground. The Avenue goalie had collected the ball and there was one other player in the Avenue half, Ray Hill. For those that dont remember, weren't alive or never watched EFC in their heyday. Ray Hill was a tall thin gangling centre forward whose greatest claims to fame are this goal, being sent off against Barnet following fisticuffs and breaking his leg against Barnet.

 

Anyway Ray was minding his own business walking slowly back to his own half of the pitch and approaching the centre circle. The Avenue goalie kicked the ball from the edge of the box and it hit Ray Hill on the back of the head and sends him sprawling. The ball bounces up in the air high over the goalkeeper who is desperately trying to recover it. Too bad the ball goes in the net. The only person in the stadium who was not laughing was Ray Hill who was probably the only person in the stadium who didn't see the goal.

 

BTW anyone remember Peter Feeley's goal on his Chelsea debut. The ball came in from a cross and Peter, always good for the main chance, was looking the other way. As he jumped the ball hit his backside and went into the net. It was recorded on MofTD.

 

Happy days,

Yes I do remember that and he faded away soon after that. my favorite has to be leroy may against yeading season 97/98 I think when E's were 1-0 up in the dying seconds he took a swing at the ball with his right leg ,completely missed it the ball hit his left leg and rolled past the stranded yeading keeper ,no one cheered but the crowd just fell about laughing.also remember the purfleet keeper in season 96/97 when a back pass went through his legs in a 3-0 win for E's. And did he get some stick from the school end mob behind the goal.

it was ETFC against Hampton & Richmond, when their 'keeper went to hoof the ball back up the field and it (?NDOMBE?) and bounced into the goal, very funny


It was Maurice, who then collected a second yellow for taking his shirt off. Not sure if he's suspended or absent with pneumonia!

1996/7 season I think. Enfield beat Yeovil in the dying minutes thanks to a Yeovil defender heading onto the back of another defender's head. The keeper was helpless as the ball looped over his head. Yeovil may've gone up, but they couldn't beat EFC that year.

True, but I am hardly making a song and dance of beating them twice in a season almost an eon ago now, am I? But then again I still get a feeling of warmth in the loins when we did the double over the Park Lane Pig Islanders a few years ago, and they went up, bugger just defeated my own argument!
