The locations of some of the greatest goals are identifiable not by the players who scored them, but the nets the ball ended up in

My Top 3 - Duncan Spencer
Continuing our series of My Top 3, where members of the History of Goal Nets community nominate their Top 3 goal nets of all time.
This week's contributor is Duncan Spencer and Duncan's Top 3, in his own words, are:
Maine Road 1977
First up is the classic D frame from the 1977 FA Cup semi-final between Everton and Liverpool. Sheer white tight netting. The first goal displays the most magnificent ball retention.
Elland Road 1974
Next up is the old A-frame classic at Elland Road circa 1974, made even slightly quirkier as they had a small pouch of loose netting to catch a well-drilled low shot.
Estadio Santiago Bernabeu 1980
Thirdly, and for sheer European quirkiness, check out the 1980 European Cup final. Outstanding round stanchion.
Picking a Top 3 was very difficult so could I make an honourable mention of Blackpool 1974? I think it was the goal of the season against Newcastle, a mini version of the Stamford Bridge nets.
Wow, that's a top Top 3, Duncan - thanks very much for sharing!
