Kevin Nolan Overhead Kick Appreciation Society

[Cajun]

He did but he was always going to be too much of a goal threat to drop, especially with the alternatives.

Has played a massive (no pun intended) role in our promotion this season, fair play to Hughton for sticking by him.

 

On and off the pitch. Whether you like him or not, he's been vital for us. Lot of time for the guy.

[junkhead]

I remember saying that I'd sell him even if he scores 20 goals this season.. fuck that, I take it all back

Still, he should be played more as a second striker or something. He's simply a lot better further up the field.

Got a bit bored and made this..

[madras]

[Astroblack]

Nah, Guthrie's goal against Leister(sp?)

Thanks, couldn't really tell with the small size. Nice goal.

Keeping with the language theme, we call that shot "semivolea" (guess could translate as "semivolley"). Is there an English word for it?

closest we have would be a scissor kick.

[madras]

[Astroblack]

the very first fraction of a second is the right way round. the rest is mirrored.

[M4]

Opposite angle aye.

[Nobody]

I'm pretty sure that's not allowed though...

No doubt will, and should, be removed soon-ish tbh.

Well it has to be, if it was mirrored then Guthrie would still be moving away from the camera, and not towards it. The advertising is un-mirrored too.

hey your right, the advertising seals it. why don't we see more from this angle ?

[Ronaldo]

Because there aren't always men in the east stand gantry.

you'd think there would be given these days of all angle coverage.

[Ronaldo]

Just some Sky games I think.
