Steve Thompson v Liverpool. December 1986. Tommo gets pushed into an advertising board and a stray nail narrowly misses his heart
Blimey I forgot I started this. It was a rather heavy night!
This is the answer. Any time anybody goes near advertising hoardings, dad would say 'agh! He could've been killed!' And I guess I wondered if anyone else read that headline or remembered the incident. Thompson really did throw himself over and completely disappear from view.
I seem to remember him doing this at Selhurst Park.

Yes my memory is of him disappearing to the right of the away end goal. This is the game Shirty5 is referring to, but sadly no clip of Thompson.

Apparently an Argentinian player died yesterday after being knocked into an advertising hoarding
Blimey that's dangerous. That could have been Killer.
"When I met Jimenez, there was some shifty lawyer in a Citeh scarf telling me the club was worth £40 million. I could've been shilled!" expostulated Josh Harris.

I think there was an extra row of advertising hoardings inside the normal perimeter, for Scandanavian TV and it was these that Thompson skidded into...with a protruding nail or something penetrating really close to his heart.
Ps...that clip gives people some idea of how good Colin Walsh was before his injuries.
