Absolute nonsense! Never has there been a better header in the history of the game since Derek Johnstone’s thunderbastard against Wales in 1978.

What about Gary McSwegens header v Marseille? Ibrox Stadium 125 Years | Gary McSwegan v Marseille 1992 via @YouTube

@YouTube DJ’s is better for me. The power and accuracy is what makes it special.

And yet he was not in the Scottish WC team

Was in the squad - just didn’t play.

What about McSwegan vs Marseille?

Great header, but not in the same class as Johnstone's. There is very little power in the cross to Johnstone, yet it hits the net like an exocet missile!

and in Scotland's hour of need he sat on the bench ...

Still remember that goal, was in C****c end that day……..back in the day when Rangers supporters went to a Scotland game.

The one against NI was pretty good too.

Was at the match ,think he scored a beauty against NIreland also

Only Scotland game I was ever at.some finish

I was there for this. Scored a cracker against N Ireland also. At the game I couldn’t believe how quick it was it was in the goal so quick that the goalie couldn’t react.

Hateley against Aberdeen for me. 😮‍💨

Hard to disagree👍🏻 but the best header I’ve ever seen was Big Terry at pittodrie 8 years old on the pitch up on my Da’s shoulders League Champions 86/87

getting followed just for this best header, it was an incredible distance and the power!

Thing is, there’s zero power in the cross. The power all comes from Big DJ.

100%

I was thinking about that earlier, made me laugh out loud, went in like a scud missile.

In fairness to CR he got about 4ft in the air and hovered there like a hawk...But nobody could flush the ball of the napper like big DJ.

i think he scored in all the home internationalsthat year yet wasnt selected for the world cup squad , madness with that option up front

Made the squad. Didn’t start any of the games though.

Cracker

I was born in 77 and was named after big DJ but my dad pulled a stroke on my mum and he went into the town to register my birth and put Derek Johnstone in as my middle name without her knowing until it was in black and white lol 🤷🏻‍♂️

It was shocking. McLeod never played him in Argentina.

I was behind the goal that night. It was a cracking goal.

And then Ally McLeod refused to play him in the WC in Argentina ( coz he played for Rangers) 🤷‍♂️😡

Bullet alright.

My favourite of all time. Scored in all the home international games got picked for world cup squad and Ally McLeod refuses to play him in any games .

Perm gave him turbo power.

I was at this game

Bloody hell I had never seen that goal from DJ before.

Just looked up Thunderbastard in the dictionary, this re-appeared! Impressive

Recency bias, they call it. That header was like a full on volley!

I was there …

Wow! Thank you for posting this, I've not seen it since 1978. Or the one against NI which was very similar, I think, it has been a while.

Have to agree. I was behind the goals that night and it looked even better from there.

That kit, every time I see it, just gorgeous 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿😍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

With a ball that weighs the same as a boeing 747 too.... different breed back then

Great header from Johnstone but Van Persie for Holland at the WC looks amazing
