Swindon Town 2014/15 Review – Goal of the Season

In the first part of our end of the 2014/15 season review, five of our writers give their verdict on the goal of the season and we ask for your vote on their nominations…

David Squires @squires_david

Goal of the season – Anton Rodgers v Leyton Orient. The meaninglessness of the fixture (from a Swindon point of view) shouldn’t detract from the perfect execution of the finish and the sheer surprise of the source of the goal. Flicking the ball up and volleying it into the net in one beautifully choreographed movement; two perfect touches being about as many as Rodgers had enjoyed in months (okay, a couple of weeks).

Nick Judd @nickjudd78

Goal of the season – I’d say either Williams’ thunderbastard against Oldham at home, or L Thompson ( 8 think) after Yaser bamboozled two opposing defenders in the corner flag?

Iain Watkins @mightygwah

Goal of the season – Rohan Ince’s volley in the Brighton game.  For Town, my favourite was Willo’s strike at home to Oldham.

Jonny Leighfield @jonnyleighfield

Goal of the season – Michael Smith against Bristol City. Those dancing feet would serve him well on Strictly and although he has come in for some criticism in recent weeks, we can’t forget how important that goal he scored was. And it was a pretty good one at that.

Daniel Hunt @dphunt88

Goal of the season – There’s been some cracking Swindon goals this season and honourable mentions must go to Andy Williams (Home to Oldham), Louis Thompson (Home to Sheffield United) and Yaser Kasim (Away to Chesterfield) but on difficulty alone, Ben Gladwin’s half volley against Sheffield United in the play-off second leg wins it hands down! It was a breathtaking strike that was still rising as it flew past the goalkeeper. Whammo!
