Recent events made me think of the 95/96 season when we last lost a play-off semi-final so all the questions this week are about events that year.

No googling or looking up the answers and then posting them up please. It spoils it for others.

1. Who scored for Charlton in the Play-off semi-final first leg after 55 seconds?

2. Which former Charlton player appeared for Palace in both legs of the Semis?

3. In the second leg of the Semi a player on each side shared which same surname?

4. Who did Palace lose to in the subsequent final?

5. Which Charlton defender made two of his career total 10 appearance (all that season) in the two semi-final legs?

6. In the same season the 5 - 1 win at Portman Rd saw which two "firsts" achieved and by which player?

7. When Charlton ran out at Kenilworth Rd for the televised league game v Luton in October 95 what surprise was there for watching Charlton fans?

8. Three Charlton players (2 then current and one future took penalties in the game v West Brom in January 1996. Who were they and who scored and who missed?

9. The 3 -1 win over Birmingham on 19 August 1995 saw Charlton do what, and our opponents do the same to us, for the first time?

10. Which two, unrelated, players with the same surname made 10 and 11 league appearances respectively for Charlton that season?

    Sorry, just seen your previous comment about this.

    6. Got it I think! Is it something like first time we'd scored 5 in consecutive away games and first time there had been a Charlton player scoring a hatrick in consecutive away games, Bowyer having scored 3 in the 5-4 win against Wimbledon at Selhurst.

    True but not the answer I was looking for.

    Amazingly, but I trust Colin Cameron, it was the first hat trick scored and first penalty taken by a Black player for Charlton

    Still no. 8 to get

    Leaburn score the second hatrick in two away games in the space of 5 days. Bowyer scoring the first away to the real Dons at sellout park.

    That's unbelievable. Only started watching Charlton in '91 but can't believe that Paul Williams or Garth Crooks or Paul Mortimer never took a penalty.

    As you say though, the man Cameron is rarely wrong!
