    I'll never forget that goal.

    But sad news.

    Today, our former striker, who has been playing for Preston North End, has announced that he has to retire from football at the age of 29 due to a serious knee injury.

    Lovely cushioned header.

    'Mellor, lovely cushoined header... For Gerrarddddddddddd........Ohhhhh ya beautyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!'

    'What a hit son, what a hit'

    :D

    -

    Never nice to hear a player retiring due to injury. Like PMK has said, he has been on LFCTV a few times doing analysis in some of the reserve games i've watched this season.

    Might get on there a few more times when the reserve season kicks back off again.

    That goal & that header for Gerrard will live long in memory. Shame he never quite lived up to that potential as he was another that was set for big things scoring goals for fun in the reserves. Hope he goes and does some coaching and maybe one day come back to LFC.
