"With so much at stake, you'd expect the Football League play-off finals to be turgid affairs. But they're not. Ever. They're a gift from the sporting gods that just keeps on giving. Hark back 10 years to Charlton's epic victory over Sunderland, arguably the finest game ever played at Wembley."
Shouldn't our decider v Leeds at St Andrews also be in that top ten?
Oh silly me, I'm forgetting that's from the days before Sky so therefore it doesn't exist... ;-)
to be fair, Boro-Chelsea from a year later is 2nd in the list and that wasn't on SKY either so maybe the writer just didn't think it was quite as dramatic as how we remember it
