30 years since Beckham's goal v Wimbledon from the  halfway line

For a bonus point , who  provided the assist, and who was the Wimbledon goalkeeper?

I had always thought it was Dave Beasant who I thought was a hero and why I wanted to be a goal keeper (Him, Erk Thorstvedt, Southall - before the haydays of Schmeichel, etc..

But I don't think it was. Hell of a cross however. My Bryllcreem stock went mental.

Edit: me auntie Ella bought me Erik Thorstvedt gloves in the now defunct Fairway sports in Omagh in 1989 and I took many a stingers to them fingertips. Worse than Mikasa. But a great memory never the less.

Gary Bailey was THE keeper  when I started taking an  interest. He just looked the part  as well.

Didn't he  go to work in TV in South Africa? Haven't heard  from him in years (Never sends a  Christmas card or anything these days)

Guessing the keeper was Sullivan.  As for who passed it to Beckham, possibly Gary Neville?
