I have this memory of a game back in the mid 60s, away from home, where in the last second of the game we had a shot on goal. As the ball flew through the air the ref. blew for full-time. The ball continued on its way into the net but was disallowed as the whistle had gone a fraction of a second before it crossed the line.

Something tells me it was an away game at Birmingham. Does anyone else (of a certain age) recall this incident?

Reminds me of a Frank Leboeuf goal from about 25 yards.

On a side note, I once had a penalty in a match. Scored, referee ordered a retake for encroachment, then blew the final whistle before I could take it. f***ing outrageous.
