Can anyone provide a link to a vid of that famous cock-up by Prudders away at Huddersfield, where he sliced it like a banana-shot into his own net from a passback? I tried you-tube, but couldn't find anything. I was chatting to a Huddersfield fan recently, and he says it went down in Town folklore.

It was actually an own goal be Keen. Prudhoe got stick but when he had plenty of chance to clear it and pass forward why did he pass back to the keeper??

I preferred the game where Muggleton went up for a last minute corner which was cleared and Lee Richardson(??) curled the ball into an empty net. First time I'd ever seen it happen and remember thinking to myself "Only fucking Stoke!"

Horror show. I was right in line with it.
It was their only shot on target at the time IIRC.

But on the good side of Prudhoe, anyone remember his save against Leicester in a central tv Sunday game? Think it was off Mike Whitlow, now that was a save

For some reason on the way home from Huddersfield we stopped off at Birch where the whole squad came piling in.
'Pretty Boy' made a beeline for us teenage lads - apologised profusely saying you've come all that way and I've gone and done that to you! He bought our sweets/drinks/ crisps as an apology. I forgave him!
In an age when they didn't earn so much comparatively, a great gesture.

Keen did NOT pass the ball back as such. He was near the by line & passed it slightly forwards if anything as Prudhoe was on edge of 6 yard box 100% Prudhoes fault Huddersfield had 0 shots on target that day!

I still remember Lou's reaction in the post match interview.
"my goalkeeper tells me he didn't kick the ball. I told him he should have done"

God that was dreadful - I seem to remember the Oatcake headline was 'Prudders Shuddersfield', or words to that extent.

We were there and met Prudders on a service station on the way home.
We asked him what happened and he said " it bobbled, and you can't legislate for that"....
We just burst out laughing, and to be honest so did he. It was indeed a comedy goal.
I think he dived the wrong way for a shot too on the same day.

I remember me and my old man bumping into muggleton outside the Hawthorns around twenty to three with his boot bag in his hands in the 90's. On spotting my Stoke top he asked my old man if he knew where the changing rooms were. He was like a rabbit in headlights. Saying that i loved muggles!

I treated my then girlfriend from wiltshire to that game. Fcuking freezing and took ages to thaw out. Remember if correct sheron scored for us until prudhoe did that right in front of us!
Yes the girlfriend married me, but made me live in wiltshire as a forfiet. Bloody 140 mile round trip now for home games!

I was at my wife's friends wedding in Scotland. A pub load of sweaties and a Vale fan taking the piss. The TV up there didn't normally cover anything below the Premiership but they made an exception that day just to show that fuck up.

I remember walking into the ground talking to big Vince Overson, he was wearing a lumberjack type shirt and was built like a brick outhouse. He came across as a nice bloke! What a howler from Prudhoe near the end if I remember rightly.

We just burst out laughing, and to be honest so did he. It was indeed a comedy goal. I think he dived the wrong way for a shot too on the same day. They didn't muster a single shot at goal in the whole match. This was the season when we got into the play offs (1995/6) Sheron scored a cracker for us that day, and it was a travesty we didn't get the three points. Prudders was generally brilliant that season, so his howler was very much a one off.

Aside from a good penalty saving record, I personally thought Muggleton was utter garbage.
