Is That The First Time In FA Cup History....

[Captain Haddock]

.....that a goalie has taken a throw-in??!!

Or in any game for that matter?

Also I wonder what the record number of frame-of-goal hitting moments in a Cup Final is?!

 

[Marc]

Ive seen plenty of goalies take throw-ins before, not sure about the cup final though.

I'm wondering that final stat too myself!

 

[Goldstone Rapper]

Ipswich hit the woodwork three times in the 1978 FA Cup Final.

 

[Andrew]

Or 2 missed penalties in a final?

 

[R. Slicker]

Ipswich hit the woodwork three times in the 1978 FA Cup Final.

Woodwork eh? That reminds me, I wonder what goalposts are made of.

The Commentator said Kalou's miss was worst than Smith's in 83

 

[Smithy24]

Even though it wasn't. Kalou had the whole goal to aim at

 

[SamSeagull]

i remember when nicky rust took a throw in for the albion at the goldstone against blackpool i think when we were losing, but the ref called it back and made an oufield player take it.

 

[Scotty Mac]

walton took a throw at gillingham once - it was his best contribution in his two year stay at the club

 

[Rookie]

Or 2 missed penalties in a final?

Must be seeing as the how the annoying bloke on ITV was going on about Boatangs penalty being only the 3rd missed in the cup final.
Is it the first time the tele have missed/talked over the start of Abide with Me? Should be hung for that

 

[Box of Frogs]

Pepe Reina took a throw in the other night against Athletico Madrid, right near the end when they were chasing an equaliser.

 

[astevens76]

was the first time a penalty has been 'missed' (ie put wide/over) at wembley in a cup final

(according to ITV's 'amazing' commentators)
