END OF SEASON REVIEW
“Tek a bow, son(s)”
With the end of the 2008/09 campaign only 24hrs away, The Spoiler takes a look back at the season’s finest goals and reveals our picks for the twenty greatest efforts. Part one documents goals 20-11…
#20: Ryan Taylor - Wigan 2-1 Newcastle, 26/12/08
The only goal we couldn’t get those new-fangled moving pictures for (19 out of 20 aint bad); Ryan Taylor’s free-kick for Wigan against Newcastle was the final straw for the Toon. Their cunning solution to stopping Taylor habitually scoring against them (4 in his last 4 meetings) was to just buy him off the Latics. It was also one of the finest dead ball strikes in what was a relatively lean season for spectacular free-kicks.

Stoke Hitman
It’s the one who did it on the pitch yesterday, of course!
While his team mates were busy conceding three points at Upton Park yesterday, Stoke striker Ricardo Fuller went on a mission to make himself the least popular man in Tony Pulis’ side. The Jamaican felt that Stoke captain Andy Griffin was at fault for Carlton Cole’s equaliser, and made his feelings clear via the medium of face slapping.
For his temporary moment of insanity, Fuller is expected to receive a fine of two weeks wages, making his wallet around £20,000 lighter during this year’s January sales.
