So many Cardiff connections,

Must be Jimmy. Still remember going to Molineux when we won 4-1 and he scored a hat trick, awesome day

Think we were top of the league that day..........Sounds familiar :ayatollah:

Jimmy Gilligan scored one of my favourite all time goals at Ninian Park against Exeter (I think?) where he contolled the ball on his chest onto his knee flicked it off his knee and hit a dipping swerving volley over the keeper sheer class :ayatollah:

Does anyone else remember that goal :?:
