Oldham installed a plastic pitch at Boundary Park in 1986, which may or may not have aided their eventually successful promotion push in 1990/91. One of the heroes of that and the previous campaign was Rick Holden, a winger who went on to dazzle intermittently at Manchester City. This goal shows Rick at his unstoppable best: Lethal power and skill enable him to negotiate his way through a helpless backline before he gleefully lashes the ball home once within range.
