Quote from BBC Ceefax page 312 page 1/5:

FASTEST EVER CLAIM

A footballer is claiming the sport's fastest goal - after he scored in just two seconds.

Marc Burrows of Cowes Sports FC, on the Isle of Wight, shot straight from the kick-off in Saturday's game against Eastleigh, and saw it sail straight in.

The referee timed the wind-assisted goal at two seconds, which would beat the existing world record, set by an Argentinian player at 2.8 seconds.

The Football Association is deciding whether to confirm the claim.





So could 'Marc Burrows' feature in the next Guinness Book of Records?

The current record is held by Forest Fan, who posts every 2.8 seconds!

If it doesn't get confirmed, it will certainly be a shame, and seen as discrimination against Non League Fooball.

But then, no-one likes FIFA that much anyway... :)

And that's one reason why this game was noticed apart from the goal- Matt Le Tissier was playing. But 2 seconds? Amazing.

I heard Cowes Sports were good (Seeing as they played my local team, Dorking, a few times in the past), but this is a surprise. A new record for sure.
