sage Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 But of a trip down memory lane combined with a bit of a game. Name a Derby player you've seen score direct (or with a small lay off) from a free kick. No repeats and you have to give an example of them scoring. I will start us off with Archie Gemmill. A bit obvious but I'm going to pick his beauty v Forest in the 83 Cup win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shipley Ram Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 Probably a bigger layoff than you wanted but Shane Nicholson vs Sheff Wed in the FA cup 08/03/1993 sent me into some sort of ecstatic raputure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Van der MoodHoover Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 Ace asanovic belting in the opener v Chelsea at Stamford Bridge. 1997 I think it was. We lost 1-3 in the end. And that was in the days before Abramovich packed the Chelsea team with galacticos.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to go for Horacio Carbonari. He came with the nickname The Bazooka and a supposedly brilliant free kick behind him. The only one I remember him scoring was a daisy cutter, cant remember who it was against mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tombo Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 Decades from now I'm going to be telling my children about all of Harry Wilson's belters, both free kicks and long range efforts. If it was in range, it was pretty much already a goal as soon as he stepped up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jumped up when he scored and got kicked out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was in the big 3-tier East stand at Stamford Bridge middle tier and it was such a surprise that I couldn't help but go up....YEEESSSS! Nearly earned myself a right kicking there and then.

Ramaway Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 Mark Pembridge scored a few. I’ll go with a direct one in a 4-2 away win at Swindon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After that you were more likely to see the ball sail into the stand behind the goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll provide the example for this one. Idiakez is hands down the best free kick taker I've ever seen at Derby. He's the only player who I was more confident he'd score from a 30 yard free kick than from a penalty. I love this game too. It really captures how frustrating and entertaining that Derby team were. Even watching the replay I feel like punching the air when Reich's diving header goes in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did he officially miss a penalty for us? The only one I remember is the Wolves home game where he had to retake it about 15,000 times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
