Best Rangers Free Kick 19:23 - Aug 20 with 12095 viewsBrianMcCarthy

This is the best that I can remember.
We were behind it and anyone who was there will swear that the shoddy camerawork does it no justice. The swerve on it was incredible, impossible even at that pace.
Add in that we were incredulous that he was taking it and that (I think?) it was his first and last free kick for us (he didn't even take our penos) and the shock factor also added to the joy.
Others?

Good call Hayes and Brixton.

Brock's helped put us top of the league, if you count opening days.

Fenwick's helped steady the ship after Liverpool knocked us off it two months later.


I remember going to Anfield genuinely thinking we were gonna win the league

I can’t find a clip of it but I remember Furlong scoring from a free kick from 30 yards up at Crewe. Even better he just walked away from it like he did it all the time.

Great calls about Venables and his free kick routines as well.

The goal that converted my friend Roller to being a Rangers fan!

I carried out this free kick in a Sunday League game the following morning & we scored. Didn't get anywhere close to a goal after that once though!

Adel at home vs Spurs was crucial in the year we stayed up

And Bowles is onside, Swinburne has come rushing out of his goal , what can Bowles do here , onto the left foot no, on to the right foot That’s there that’s two, and that’s Bowles Brian Moore

Akos was the best FK taker of the last 30-odd years for us.


Buzsaky, I have to agree!
Scored a nice one v Wigan Home 2012 - can't find video and if memory serves, think Rodallega scored an even better one for them

Don’t think it was his last free kick

Might be wrong but thought he did similar the following year away at Wimbledon (Selhurst Park).

He got two in a 3-1 win pretty sure his second someone touched it and he then hammered it in from 20-25 yards

Les Goal at Oldham

Yes if i recall it went both ways. a real highlight on a otherwise pretty miserable day, I can still see the trudge out to that muddy old half made car park on the final whistle in my minds eye

I remember genuinely feeling Richard Langley might score with every free kick in the danger area. It amazes and disappoints me how consistently atrocious most of our free kicks have been since.

Wooooooah - controversy!

By the way, I sometimes hear that Bardsley was great at free kicks - was this the only one he scored for us?


He scored one in the 5-3 at Everton, low and under the wall.

The best free kick I can remember was a last minute attempt by Rodney Marsh at home to Bristol Rovers in an evening cup game. We were trailing 1-0 at the time and Rodney bent it right round an 11 man wall to equalise and the keeper didn't move. I think we lost the replay.Astonishing free kick, though.

Any one else remember this one?

El Tel was the master at set pieces
That short corner routine with Anderton & sheringham worked a treat for England & spurs

And Bowles is onside, Swinburne has come rushing out of his goal , what can Bowles do here , onto the left foot no, on to the right foot That’s there that’s two, and that’s Bowles Brian Moore

Remember Ian Barraclough sticking one top bins at the Loft End against Huddersfield. Held the record as our last goal from a direct free kick for fcking years I think.

I remember Venables clever free kicks.There was one where a player stood on the end of the wall Another player runs over the ball and keeps on going A third player passes the ball to the guy on the end of the wall who first time knocks the ball into the path of the runner who places it past the keeper
I haven’t any footage of this hopefully someone else has I tried this with my sons five a side team and it worked

You would have thought that every effort would have been put into developing free kick takers. It just seems to be completely missing from our game.

Just a couple of weeks after the Bardsley one against Southampton, Sinton repeated the dose at The Dell. Away terrace in fine form.
