Fastest Goals

[Ronnief]

Tonight I went and saw Littlehampton Town play Sittingbourne in the FA Cup. Littlehampton scored 20 seconds into the match and then winning 4 nil after 90 minutes. As far as I can remember the first goal was the fastest goal I have ever seen live. I'm sure there may have been quicker goals. Can anyone remember any quicker goals or any that Fulham have been involved with. 092.gif

I recall Rory Hamill getting a very early one, not sure of the exact time though!

Edit: it says Hamill's goal was 7 seconds on the club website (and that it is the club record) - https://www.fulhamfc.com/club/history/timeline/1990s/1995/

Hamill got the ball played through to him (for some reason I thought Paul Brooker was involved)?

Ideally lobbing the keeper from the half way line, the keeper wouldn't be expecting it. Maybe a slight breeze. Love to see that.

Ipswich, I think, scored inside 12 seconds a few years ago at the Cottage?

Recall Rodney Marsh trying it, straight from kick off.

Allan Clarke V Nottingham Forest at the cottage our last season in the old first division, 16 seconds I think.

I saw that Allan Clarke goal in the top division . . Brilliant ! Always thought that held the record. Great to hear of a quicker one.

There's Fulham alum Clint Dempsey with a goal against Ghana in the world cup in 2014: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lbxKq6LmKCA

The TV said it took 30 seconds.

First game at the Cottage for me having been taken by my Late Father. The game was on Match Of The Day that night and I remember my Mum picking out my Dad on the Telly. Thanks for posting this, great memories.

Alan Mullery scored an own goal in 30 seconds in a game against Sheffield Wednesday in the early '60s !!
