Doesn't matter how many times it's shown.
Spine tingling.
Wonder when we will next have a midfield of that quality.0 -

That was a scary night - ran to the car afterwards and drove the wrong way up a one way street to get away. I think I was the only bloke in a suit in the entire ground.DOUCHER said:

Every time I see that game,I think what an idiot RD was.Any man with any sense would have looked at the support,the team we had and realised what a golden opportunity this was to take this club forward,keep Aribo Baur ,sign Josh permanently,give Bowyer a decent budget for the championship,and try to make some sort of peace with the fans.Yes I know some fans will never forgive ,and I understand that,but a good steady showing in the Championship,with a competetive team may have swayed them.9

A day late but bump.2

St Andrews 87 and Stamford Bridge 88 are the most frightened I have been leaving a football match - horrendous !!DOUCHER said:

Great day but such a shame it didn't lead to further success like our previous trip to Wembley.
Unlike the previous time I was some what intoxicated for this one. Though I remember it all. Including my spontaneous hug/grapple of an elderly lady after we scored who was sitting next to me. I knew I should of sat in the middle of our group. I did apologise to her afterwards and her son but she said don't be silly. like all of us it was a euphoric moment.One memory is singing red red robin after the game with a thousand others.
My memory after that becomes hazy but I do remember dancing in a pub with a couple of old mates and getting a lift in a taxi from a Millwall fan and for most of the way explaining to him why Charlton are a better team.
Another great day. Even though I would always see the previous play off against Sunderland more special. Probably because my nan was still alive and my dad was in good form back then. Plus I wasn't half cut through the majority of it. And of course it led to a reasonably successful period for our club.2 -
He was never capable of seeing the bigger picture. He had the chance when he first took over to push us on but made idiotic decisions and never really gave a sh1t.thickandthin63 said:Every time I see that game,I think what an idiot RD was.Any man with any sense would have looked at the support,the team we had and realised what a golden opportunity this was to take this club forward,keep Aribo Baur ,sign Josh permanently,give Bowyer a decent budget for the championship,and try to make some sort of peace with the fans.Yes I know some fans will never forgive ,and I understand that,but a good steady showing in the Championship,with a competetive team may have swayed them.5 -

RD’s attitude after this shows what a fuckwit he was/is.2

There were a few 'zulus' thinking Christmas had come early and that we were Leeds. They left us alone being very content we were Charlton and had won the game.*PS, sorry for the late reply to your post!0 -

Correct, but Dushitelet NEVER had any interest in the team and football side of things.

What a fantastic day but the memory is diluted by the subsequent utter waste of a great opportunity for our club.4

We were treated as a piece of the jigsaw for his pathetic football experiment…..absolutely disgusting.🤨🤨🤨Stonewallpenalty19 said:

Great memories of the day, but unfortunately severely tainted by massively fucking up the following seasons.1
-
I hate Charlton right now. We are an embarrassment. A team smaller than us and was non league is now deservedly in the Prem. Utter 💩. F. off Duchalet and Sangaard.

A great day, but I've moved on.
As a club whose natural level is the Championship anyway, it's way down my list of top Charlton memories when compared to 1998, 1987 (which I listened to on the radio) or 1988 battle of the bridge.6 -
…..I still get goosebumps as Cullen shapes to swing in ‘that’ cross and still well up as the ball hits the net and the fans and commentators erupt. I can’t say that about any other, individual moment after a 50 year lifetime on the Charlton rollercoaster.killerandflash said:A great day, but I've moved on.

….I second that! Somehow, my seat at the Bridge was in the home-only side stand. I was with my girlfriend who wasn’t a football fan but came with me as girlfriends do but also because, that night, we were seeing Whitney Houston in concert at Wembley Arena where I was planning to propose to her on blended knee as she sang “I Will Always Love You”. Anyway, she was petrified and begged me not to react if we scored. She was almost relieved when they went in front! However, as Paul Miller’s effort looped in, I rose to my feet with the biggest cheer - and in one single movement bounced back down again. We survived that but, whilst waiting outside the ground for the masses to disperse, a large, angry mob came thundering through the street which spooked her. We had a huge row as she stormed off and whilst we went to see Whitney, we weren’t talking and the proposal went on hold - for 2 YEARS.Lordflashheart said:

Bauer's goal for excitement eclipsed '98.2

Ooh controversial.....
Appreciate the late timing of Bauer was everything...
'98 was totally different and was all about the total game rather than one incident...to say one was more exciting than the other is impossible, like chalk and cheese really8 -
Fantastic day! Looking forward to watching back later.
