He didn't actually chip it. (Assuming you mean against West Brom) He side footed it perfectly into the bottom corner. I've searched all over for my favourite and can't find it. But it is years ago, possibly early 80s. Corner against Norwich, in it comes and the Norwich player caught a full blown diving header right I to the bottom corner.
I was there that day as well. I'd just started my job in Birmingham about 6 months before and got a lift to the game from a Wolves fan from work. I couldn't find his car in the car park afterwards, to he fair I think they'd all left early. So, I started walking towards the city centre to catch the train back home, when this car pulls up at the side of me. It was my mate from work laughing his head off. To he fair he took it in good spirits, considering they'd just been tonked 5 zip
That's brilliant, gives me hope that I can still be a professional footballer, even at nearly 50. I could definitely be that bad.
I bet St John's had their work cut out from the number of Barnsley fans who nearly died laughing after that
I remember Futch chipping Clive Baker from what seemed like about 30 odd yards out in front of the Ponty. Must have been a different one to the one in the bottom corner.
An over-exuberant backpass against Gillingham under Parkin, very funny. Possibly one of the highlights of a diabolical season.
