EWB's Goal of the Month - November 2011

[Lineker]

Every month, I will open up the floor to nominations to elect a goal of the month. Then come June we can have a goal of the season from all of the monthly winners.

• Wherever possible, please post a Youtube clip of the goal.
  
• Do not nominate a goal that has already been nominated.
  
• Specify when the goal was scored, by whom, and in what match.
  
• The following competitions are eligible for nominations: Barclays Premier League, nPower Championship, nPower League One, nPower League Two, the FA Cup, the Carling Cup, UEFA Champion's League, UEFA Europa League. We could eventually extend to include Scotland. (But nothing good ever happens in Scottish football.)
  
• If more than ten goals are nominated, then I will whittle them down to ten with the help of a select group of judges (to apply, PM me should you be interested).
  
• November's nominations remain open until 10pm GMT on Saturday 3rd December.

The poll to elect the best goal will go up late Saturday/early Sunday where you will have a few days to have your say on EWB's Goal of the Month.

I won't nominate myself, but I feel that Boateng's goal for Milan against Barca in the CL, Ambrose's screamer for Palace last night, and Andy Johnson's superb goal in the league for Fulham from the very start of the month must all be nominated by someone!

Well, Darren Ambrose, with a side of Ryan Taylor against Everton.

Do they have to count? That wrongly offside overhead kick in Serie A last week was amazing.

The contest is over; close the entries. I'd like to thank everyone who lost.

[Lineker]

Except that's from La Liga

[Plubby]

SILENCE, UNBELIEVER!

[IAceI]

Exactly, otherwise Schlaudraff's volley for Hannover v Hamburg would be my nomination.

However, since that isn't in the rule I'll do Lineker the favour of nominating Andy Johnson's strike against Wisla:

[Lineker]

Christ, what a belter.

In the future we will probably expand the criteria. but keep it simple for now

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

I have a soft spot for beautiful volleys like that. Much like Bale's last season from the Lennon cross. The technique for them is just beautiful.

Otherwise yeah Darren Ambrose's goal was stunning.

[Gazz]

Perfect technique.

I've got a beauty lined up for the November 2015 competition from Patrick Kisnorbo...

[Matt]

Do we even need a voting thread? Ambrose is going to win.

[DavidMarrio]

Nahki Wells with his belter against Rochdale in the FA Cup. Pick that out the net!!!

As I'm sure you've noticed, Johnson's was against Wisla, has been posted, and deserves to win over the goal by Ambrose.

Not that I am biased or anything.

[Adam]

Has Ambrose's been nominated yet? If not, that one. If so...still that one.

Anyway, mine may be a fairly obvious one...or it may not. The aftermath has ended up in about 8 people's sigs so it should do. November 1st, 2011. Doncaster 1-3 Middlesbrough. Billy Sharp.

Can't find any besides SSN television rips but it's not bad footage of the goal.

[Gazz]

Since the game crashed and I lost the match and it is now useless for my next update.

I nominate Patrick Kisnorbo, Gold Coast Utd vs Central Coast Mariners

Pick that fucker out!

[Lineker]

Keep them coming folks!

[Colly]

Balotelli. I love him.

[Lineker]

Last call. Deadline is midnight tonight GMT (just under 4 hours from now).

[Lineker]

Noms are shut. Poll up in the morning.
