Yeah me. It didn't take a deflection.

There. Solved.

I'll go one further and say that my memory is saying it clipped the bottom of that Rankin (ex-wolves)'s boot.

Just spent 5 minutes watching a video on u-tube supposedly of this match - turned out to be 5 mins of players walking around and the singers pre-match - bollox

Didn't John Terry get the final touch and claim victory on behalf of the mighty BWFC :lol:

He said it went straight in.

Played against us(RAF Valley) on the 30th Jun this year in a charity match for Aston Villa's legends.

Thanked him for the goal.

Was at Villa between 92-97. Youth player and a few senior games.

The charity was set up to allow any ex villa player to play.

Gavin McCann played too but wasn't up for chatting. Played n fooked off.

The manager is Bruce Rioch. He didn't turn up so he sent his son.

Can't see whether it takes a deflection or not, but it definitely bobbles.

How can you tell? You can't tell. Not from that video at that speed at that angle with that grainy footage that far away with the people that small.

From memory more than the video, and you're right it's a bit of guesswork with the video. It might take a slight deflection off the player closing him down. And you can't really tell. But that's the only place it might have been deflected from.
