Nigel Butt used to be able to head from ball miles!! wouldn't know if he scored from one miles out though

Hughie Dawson for Porthleven from in his own half at Halsetown many years ago. Keeper's kick met by Hughie in the centre circle, one bounce, over the keepers head and in.

Well Nigel Butt played for my Sunday League side,and I cant remember him scoring,let alone from

distance with a header.

Allistair Lang's extraordinary record, achieved while

he was playing for Northbank against Spittal Rovers in the Northern

Alliance League in September 1998? Allistair scored with a header from

60 yards! The FA told the 22-year-old that their records showed that

the previous longest scoring header was 35 yards, by Peter Aldis for

Aston Villa against Sunderland in 1952."

My grandfather once told me Dixie Dean scored for Everton with an header from the half way line, never did check it out.

[Deano]

He sure did, as its mentioned on a Everton History DVD, but i don't think there is footage of it! All the heading he done wiv those old balls did take affect on him in the end.
