What a night. Had a colleagues leaving do in Brighton so left the office around 1 for a huge piss up pre arrival to The Valley. Unbelievable night and went through every emotion that existed. Time stood still when I saw Marquis standing on his own in the box.
Went absolute mental when Rowe missed, was straight on the pitch looking for my mates. Will never forget looking up from the 6 yard box and seeing a full covered end celebrating. Amazing night and one which regularly gets mentioned.

Got me so stressed, I regulated myself on the day of the Final and didn’t enjoy that as much as I should have.0

I recall bumping into some distraught Doncaster fans as I walked to the car after the game. I sincerely told them they deserved better and they wished us well in the final. Great fans.0

This time last year I was checking everything worked ahead of getting my Wembley tickets.Typical Charlton 2 minutes in all was perfect Two goal lead and playing well then 98 minutes of football later all despair before within a minute Pratley scored cue delirium and then the drama of the penalty shoot out.Little did we know the biggest drama was still to come.1

Easily one of the best nights I've ever experienced at The Valley. The atmosphere was red-hot.7

Just a ridiculous night and the best atmosphere I can ever remember for a night game at The Valley - or pretty much any game!It took us five hours to drive down and got to the ground about 10 mins before kick-off so no time for a couple of nerve settlers before the game. I hated pretty much every minute of the game until Naby stepped up - and even then I was one of the many who thought Donnie had another penalty. I remember shouting 'get back' when the crowd started coming on to the pitch. Then I realised and unbridled joy ensued.We were off to Spain the next day for a golf trip so had to drive from The Valley to Gatwick. The A2 was a nightmare and I thought to myself how awful that journey would have been had we lost. But I couldn't stop breaking out into uncontrolled laughter most of the way there, much to my two sons' amusement. I also had time in the morning to bag our tickets for the final before we took off.Magnificent memories4

Intense evening. Standing, crammed in for 145 mins, feeling like a bag of rats burst open in my stomach from the moment Rowe's goal went in, ending up a physical and nervous wreck and taking three days to fully recover from that feeling of unease. Memorable night, for sure, but I can't say I'd race to do it all over again in a hurry. Pure, proper football, though.1

Of everything, the one thing that stays with me the most is... it's bloody bright under those floodlights, isn't it?

Edit - I even remembered that wrong - of course Naby's penalty was saved and then Marquis missed - it was then I thought we had to take another one!

Then I eventually remembered solly took 1st.
Was such a great night from start to finish. The atmosphere and being there with my nephews, brother, dad and friends will live long in the memory.0 -

From the videos it looks like even Rowe thought the same judging by his little jog back to the halfway line only to realise that was it.0 -

What a night, was my Birthday too. The only other time I can remember playing on my Birthday was the home Swindon semi and was convinced we'd lose again after they scored their 1st. The Oak ran out of all beer and cider after the game so ended up on large G+T's.

DVDs arrived this morning, not HD quality but watchable, apart from the 98 final which is pretty poor, the copy on YouTube is better. Not going to complain for £3 each.2 -
