Smithy’s goal will also be entered in the yearly competition along with Vaibhav C.’s goal from January for a chance to win a free copy of Football Manager 2012! Back to this month’s competition, the book that is going to be offered to the winner is one that I like very much about a team that impressed me and the whole world. The book is called Brilliant Orange: The Neurotic Genius of Dutch Football and it was written by David Winner.
Here’s a short description of this fascinating book:
The intellectualisation of football has always foundered on a simple problem–the players. Doing all your most rewarding thinking with your feet seems to dull the philosophical impulse. Unless, of course, you are Dutch. According to legend, Europeans played a moronic, muscular version of the world’s game, until Holland proclaimed its vision of total football in the 1974 World Cup, and enlightenment dawned.
In Brilliant Orange: the neurotic genius of Dutch football, journalist David Winner explores his personal fascination with the land that gave the world Van Gogh, Rembrandt and Johan Cruyff–searching for reasons why such a tiny country has produced some of football’s most intelligent, enigmatic and unfulfilled teams.
Trust me, it’s a great read and I’m pleased to offer it as a prize to the one who will win this month’s contest. So what are you waiting for, submit your goals right here by leaving a comment with a link to the goal video!

I think this is rather good… but I’m bias!!
“Rather good” is an understatement, it’s great! Thanks for the entry and good luck!
Best bit? that the first time I/ve played that same for about 3 months!? I’m taking Hinckley United of the Blue square north to the champions league!! (Trying)
That’s a tough challenge but entirely possible, good luck!
I think we have a winner!

Nice one Dami, you’re in with a good chance I reckon. Good luck!
My goal won’t upload, I have tried for 2 days straight. I have even tried different videos. What can I do?
Did FM at least encode the video or not? Because if it did then you can look it up in your computer and then try to upload it manually to YouTube.
yeah it did. Where can I find it?
Should be in \Documents\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2011\uploads
And how do you upload it manually?
I thought this was an amazing goal when it happened but not so sure now! Will submit it anyway

LB picks up ball in own half at runs directly towards goal then a calm finish to round it off!
Nice one Dave, good luck!
Not exactly great quality but I have got it.
