Had to change my security pass at Barclays in Canary Wharf this morning and was sorted out for me by our very own Carl Leaburn!
Have great memories of that day at the Bridge. One of my favourite games for Carl alongside the chipping of a certain Peter Shilton at Derby all those years ago.
I thought the Shilton chip was at Selhurst?
No, away at Derby, right in front of the home fans at the old Baseball Ground.
I rate this as equal to or even better than the play off final as the best game i've been to. Was convinced I was having a heart attack throughout the match such was the tension.
Didnt Durie go close with a free kick right at the death ?
Seemed like hours that we were kept in afterwards
Was kept in for 45-60 mins afterwards, we drove home and went down the Old Kent Road at near enough 7pm and it was full of Millwall celebrating their last game of the season and going up as champions.

At the Baseball ground, I know, I missed the goal as I went to the loo, heard the cheer. I asked a steward who scored, he told me that your black centreforward has just chipped Shilton, I replied yeh I believe that.

LOL G...that's actually the sanitised version of what you said wasn't it?
Old man tells me he was in the home end for this one with my Chelsea supporting uncle, he got pelted with coins and all sorts including a pie, when we scored cos he decided to celebrate along with a few other Charlton dotted about!
Who was the match filmed for, as it doesn't look like an ITV or BBC production?
I recall being kept in for ages after the game. I also remember the National Front recruiters outside the ground...
Looking at that team, it's hard to see how Chelsea could have struggled so much. Nevin, Dixon and Durie up front, Dorigo and Steve Clarke as fullbacks plus Pates who we later sold on to Arsenal. http://www.espn.co.uk/football/sport/match/index.html?event=3;season=1987/88;team=266# Interestingly, Spurs were only 5 points from safety that season, it's hard to imagine Chelsea and Spurs struggling like that now...
Thanks for posting this... I've just relived it... This was probably my first away game. I was 15, dad took me. There was a nasty atmosphere the whole day, including when we went to a corner store before the game and a bunch of Chelsea fans basically walked in, grabbed whatever they wanted and walked out without paying! The shop keeper just shrugged if I remember...I was just behind the group of the Chelsea fans when they kicked off in our end (when they got their penalty?)
Great save from Bolder fromt he free kick near the end and Dorigo's shot wasn't far away... mind you Andy Jones should have put that chance away!!
First time I've read this for a while... my bickering with OohAhh on the first page made me laugh. If away followings were the only thing we had to moan about now, we'd be happy.

A scary day out with the right result.
Somehow don't think it will still get discussed on Chelski message boards, do you? Consigned to their long last past.
When they played West Ham the next season they were taunted by the ICF singing "Chelsea run from Charlton", told that by a close pal who is an appy hammer. If anyone remembers the CS gas attack on some Charlton at White City tube the following season after we were at QPR, that was Chelsea trying to exact revenge, they came unstuck then too.
I remember that at White City, think @TEL may have been there too.
Went with a mate who is WestHam.He got lobbed out very early on.THink during the fracas when the DOris also got removed. iJust recall seeing him getting paraded around the track.....good turn out.
