Wow, this is tough! Which ones do I leave out?!

In no particular order:- Mauge at Wembley, Wright at Shrewsbury, Hartley v Pompey.

But, ask me again in a few weeks and I’ll probably have changed my mind!

It’s such a shame that diving headers are becoming a thing of the past in football now. You rarely see wingers run to the by-line and cross the ball anymore.

Given a season where we've scored precious few headers, what were your out of seat headed goal moments of the past, 3 spring to mind for me, Obviously Mauge Wembley is one, then that last minute Playoff semi header from Hartley against Pompey, but none will ever better Saturdays Joe Edwards winner for sheer elation it just seemed to mean so much.
If Edward’s header was the same timing as Hartley’s I’d struggle to choose. But that last touch of the game winner was something else.

Jervis against Pompey in 2017, a valuable point all but confirm promotion (which was confirmed a few days later against Newport).

Incidentally, that game we wore perhaps my favourite Argyle kit. One of our best ever away shirts, but instead of playing in our full away strip of all white, we wore our home shorts (because of Pompey's white home shorts).

In no particular order:- Mauge at Wembley, Wright at Shrewsbury, Edwards v Hull.

That goal was a thing of beauty; a superb build up, cross, and header.

I'm sure a Wrexham player scored a headed own goal from outside the box at Home Park in 94/95. It was Mick Quinn's debut on loan and the memory I have of this goal is so vivid that I hope it's not my imagination playing tricks.

Foggiest game I can remember attending, to boot.
I remember that. I'm sure they scored 2 World class OGs.
