I was in the south stand too, the funny thing was all the Rovers fans screaming desperately " Behind you, look behind you!!" I remember their keeper saying that he didn't look behind him because he thought it was the Brighton fans winding him up! One of my favourite football moments ever.

Wow! Choices, choices. In over 50 years of Albion watching I've seen a few, and does best = most important? Anyway these are my top equal selections:
Ken Beamish - an absolute belter of a shot against Rotherham during injury time to give us a 2-1 win. This was to be a giant step to gaining promotion from Division 3 back in 1972.
Peter Ward (who else?) when we played Millwall at the Den in 1977/78 season. With his back to goal, received a through ball, turned on a sixpence, left Barry Kitchener for dead and ran on forty yards to slot home. 1-0, sublime.
Jimmy Case - THAT free kick in the cup semi-final against Sheffield Wednesday.
Leo Ulloa - for absolute let's all go completely mental goal celebrations, his winning header against Forest in injury time to put us into the 2014 play offs.
Of course, there are still loads more!

Vicente against Derby, best non-goal ever. And, if it had gone in, best goal too. Probably the most sublime bit of football I have seen from a player wearing the stripes.
Actual goal: Zamora at Bury, perfectly placed to see it roll down the back of the net, which made me aware of the fact that being in a certain position in the ground can shape your perception of the quality of a goal.

That was my lad's first game. I told him not to bother coming again as he would never see anything like it from a Brighton player ever again. He was quite right to ignore me (although he is still waiting).
- Ulloa's 2nd/our 3rd against Palace on St Patrick's Day - superb team goal.
- Skalak's thunderbolt against QPR, a different kind of goal to the above, but superb in its own way.
I have to also mention Vicente's non-goal against Derby - never seen anything like that from an Albion player before or since.

I wanted to mention the Brian Bromley goal but couldn't remember who it was against. Of course "Every Peter Ward goal" was a good one too

CKR against Sheff Utd. 3-0 down and he ran from halfway line and smashed it in. Remember it as a pretty decent goal
Also, our third against Sheff Wed (I think Buckley scored it) a few years ago. It was a night match and Bruno played a beautiful ball over the top leading up to it

Mark Lawrenson vs Wolves in the FA Cup.
Similar to the Vicente run vs Derby, only he beat more players and scored!!!

I was at about half a dozen of the goals previously mentioned, but the one that gave me the most visceral reaction was the most recent, that being Skalak's thunderb*****d.
To me, it's quite something for a goal to make a 'world weary', nearer 50 than 40 something bloke, feel, act and behave like the kid watching Wilkins or Munday's goals has to set it apart from the rest.

Rohan Ince at Swindon was a good hit.

I think it was Stuart munday who scored a volley away to Brentford. Corner chipped to edge of box and he hit it first time on volley from about 25 yards into top corner.
