My selection of the best Derby County goals that I could find. Based on skill not importance. Vote for your favourite and announce any more you wish me to add.
Nice to see the Giles Barnes goal at Sunderland, fabulous skill in that drag back. A few that spring to my mind are Hughes' back heel against Brighton in the play off & a goal against Florest in 1979 (the 4-1 match), think it was the second one where Derby knock about 20 passes around the box like Brazil before scoring (I was behind the goal as a young lad at that game!) One goal I saw live that amazed me was a midweek cup match in the early 80's when Paul Hookes got the ball with his back to goal at about the halfway line, turned, beat a few players & hammered the ball in from about 30 yards .. never seen it since & wonder whether it was as great as I remembered ??
Three more to consider: Ron Webster's header from Alan Hinton's perfect cross v Manchester City 1972 John O'Hare's header in the Championship decider v Leeds 1972 Dean Sturridge's long range strike v Arsenal 1996
