That's got to be an excuse to show his goals against R&DFC

Of all the matches I have watched, I have never seen 2 better goals by the same player in 90 minutes.
This is also my favourite and most memorable match of the old R&D era.

Hope he enjoys his retirement.

Without a doubt, Gareth's first goal was clearly the best goal ever scored at Nene Park. His second was not too shabby either. ;)

Amazing goals there, though Paul Hall's 2nd isn't bad either!

Can still remember that game like it was yesterday, including Onandi Lowe missing a sitter, which would have put us 4-3 up...if I remember correctly.

Who said we had no history?!

You are right, I couldn't believe he didn't score and after the game, a QPR fan said what a team we were and thought we should have won 4-3.

Good days.

I remember thinking how good QPR were when they led 3-1 but then super Sub Onandi Lowe brought it bavk level. Don't think Talbot ever placed him on the bench again!
