The worst goal Hearts have scored

I've never seen a "worst" in the 49 years I've been going to Tynecastle.

Did the ball not hit Bobby Prentice on the arse from a cross in a game at Tynie if I remember correctly four goals were scored in the first ten minutes 2-2 possibly against the sheep 🐑

Maybe the one Don Cowie got at the end of that derby. Or Cammy's winner against RBK. Both great, awful goals.

Anyone else remember Alan Gordon’s goal v Raith Rovers one snowy night at Tynie around 1970?

He was standing on the 18yd line when the Raith goalie slipped in the snow taking a bye kick. The ball hit 

Alan on the head and bounced into the net with the goalie still flat on his back. I’m sure it was the only goal of 

the game.

That is comical!! Wonder if it was recorded.

I spoke to Alan about that. He turned round 40 yards out and the ball was almost at his head so instinctively he headed it. It went bounce bounce trickle trickle towards goal. Bobby Reid, the Rovers goalie, slipped kicking the ball (pitch was icebound and "barely" playable) and kept slipping trying to get to his feet. The ball rolled slowly into the net. 1-0 was the final score,

Sandy Clark’s toe poke when his boot had come off 

 

Doesn't count. He was through on goal and would have scored regardless. And that was a fantastic pumping of rangers that afternoon.

I remember that. Around 1971 or 2.

1975/76, possibly League Cup section game against Aberdeen, 2-2 after 8 minutes and that was the final score.

I remember a Jim Hamilton goal against Ayr when they had that goalie that wore a woolie hat which was like a comedy of errors as they both hacked away at it. And then both looked utterly baffled that it ended up in the net.

There was a Nade header at the School End which was fumbled by the flumps’ latest comedy goalkeeper (Makalamity?) and just crossed the line. It was not a thing of beauty.

 

And yet a thing of great beauty.

Sam Nicholson's first goal for us, complete scrap, the shot was slaffed and almost went wide, and two players got sent off for scrapping in the net.

Ah now. You could be right. My memory.

 

Edit: you’re definitely right!

the posh bit

We beat Aberdeen 4-1 at home around 2007/8. Nade scored the first, tapping in an astonishing attack led by 4 Aberdeen defenders. It was keystone cops stuff.

I was at that game. It was in December 68 (thanks wiki) and did, indeed, finish 1-0. I would still have been getting 'lifted over' then as I was just a whippersnapper. 55 years ago, gulp!!!!

I don't give a shit how the ball ends up in the net. There is no such thing as a bad Hearts goal

Hans Eskilson's first goal for Hearts was ridiculous... but still a goal for Hearts.

I've not said you're from Hamilton I've simply pointed the remarkable similarity of the mundane, trolling attention seeking asinine pish that he used to post that mysteriously stopped when yours started.

Well it's not me. If he liked to have a laugh I can understand why he left

And we missed a penalty as well, all in the first few minutes.

Neil McFarlane bundling it in against Partick. I think it was his only goal for us, so he probably remembers it more fondly than me.

I don’t think he suggested that you were, tbh.

 

I read it as he was merely pointing out that there are a lot of slow and depressing nights in Hamilton.

 

Why do you think it was aimed at yourself?

A +1 for the Donaldo Cowie flick against Hibs in the Scottish Cup that backspinned over the line before McGinn could boot it away. I thought for a good five seconds ref had given a foul instead of the goal!

 

Was the Zal winner in 2012 Cup Replay vs St Johnstone not a massive scramble? After being rescued by a pen in the 90th!!

I too remember it well as I had a visit to RIE to get a plaster cast on a cracked wrist. I had been Playing in goals during first 2 periods on the Friday morning & sustained the injury saving a shot. At least it got my out of goals for the rest of the game.

 

A visit to doctor’s surgery on the Saturday morning with an immediate referral of A&E, but no chance of missing the game at Tynecastle in the afternoon. Bobby Reid was the Rovers keeper & Alan Gordon scored his header from 20/25/30/35/40** yards (Take your pick), but it was a goal never to forget.

 

Pity AG did not score with a header from 6 yards in the infamous 0 - 2 defeat of Killie 2/3 seasons earlier😡

Hard to think of worst goals. Clearly not the worst but Rudi's goal against Rangers on his second debut was bizarre. He seemed to completely miss the ball with his first effort before smashing it home.
