If you're the girl who wears the charltontotty shirt with dyed blonde hair, then I admire how young you look. I would have said you were about 23 years old maximum, which would have meant you weren't born in October 1986.
I also remember going to West Ham a couple of seasons after this game and we won there 3.1 again. Paul Williams scored a couple of good goals for us, can`t quite remember who got the other one. Something tells me there was an own goal in the game, not certain though.
In those days we used to beat West Ham in the league and lose to them in the cup at regular intervals. Does anybody remember Mark Reid and Mark Wards private war? Neither of them complained they just got on with it, proper football. Going back to the nine second goal, that was a good starter, Walshies second was outstanding. Happy days!
I was there with my dad and remember it well. Didn't realise at the time that it was a history making moment, but can't see how it will ever be broken in the future. 9 seconds is pretty damn quick!

Busted.
Anyone recall this match?
Think it was Stewart Robson - a freak looping heading from outside the box. We had that awful grey kit on if I remember rightly.
Always loved Jimmy Melrose.
