    Oh really sad news indeed……that goal often gets rolled out when FA Cup memorable moments get mentioned.
    The crowd invaded the pitch, a great moment in the city of my birth.
    RIP…..Ronnie…..RIP.

    RIP. The ultimate underdog goal that springs to mind whenever the early rounds of the FA Cup come around

    RIP. I always think of kids in anoraks running on the pitch when I hear his name.

    That is sad news. I can remember that as if it was yesterday and one of my favourite FA cup memories from my childhood. The FA cup as it truly should be.

    RIP

    Brilliant goal. 9 times out of ten a player would probably have skied that over the bar. It caught it just right.

    I think you're being very generous with those odds. 99/100 might be nearer the mark, what with the state of the pitch and the weight of the ball back then. He couldn’t have hit it sweeter though for sure. 

    RIP Ronnie.

    His place in the history of the oldest (and greatest) football cup competition in the world is secure.

    RIP Ronnie.

    Many people think it was the winner but it was an equaliser that took the game to extra time. Ricky George got the winner. Now, where did Radford and George play together?

    Hereford take on Portsmouth in MOTD live.
