    Hardest shot.

    You never seem to hear this expression any more. If you asked this in the past, a lot would say Peter Lorimer.

    I saw a fair few Lorimer goals as a kid when dragged to Leeds matches with my dad and brother.

    My dad always said he’d never seen a harder shot and I’d agree,I’ve never seen anyone consistently better.

    I’d agree with Jimmy Case as well.

    I’m surprised neither of you mentioned Bomber Brown who was right up there for me.

    Of latter day players Paul Scholes would the others a run for their money.

    In our present line up I’m struggling to think of anyone other than Brunt with power in their shot and that rarely hits the target.

    Our own Ronnie Allen. Burst one of the old leather balls from the penalty spot. If my memory serves me correctly, I think that it was against Villa.
