  • Do you mind if I just get a Summers t-shirt, not sure want his name tatooed on my arse.

    His granddaughter Anne probably has a t-shirt range
  • JS worked with my father in the summers/off season (no pun intended) and he was remembered as a really decent down to earth chap ...such a tragedy that he left us so young ...although i cannot corroborate this my Dad (since died) was at the match but was so peed off he left at half time
  • I was there. The most exciting game of football I have ever seen; although the play-off final against Sunderland came very close.
  • I saw every game that season, except one, you are allowed to guess! I'd been off School all week and my dear old Mum felt I should not risk any sort of relapse. You can imagine the sort of relapse I suffered when the score came up on "Sports Report" and the match report that followed.

    Hope someone keeps the ball so it can go in the club museum one day.

    That Hudds boss Shankly was moaning again. Loud mouth Jock knows nothing about management.


    Mr Shankly had that youngster Denis Law available and didn't pick him. Rookie error.

    Summers didn't look too chipper to me at the end of the game. I hope he's not unwell. I'd see a doctor if I was him. Nip it in the bud.
    Sorry, I do not understand this comment, unless you are referring to the serious illness he died of later, if so, seems a strange way to comment on it
    well he is called Loony Bin ! seems a bit insensitive on his part

    The thing that I always see when I look at this programme (as I've still got my Dad's copy, who *really was* there for the full 90) is that the next home league game was an interesting 11:15 k.o. against Donny on Christmas day - from another thread, I think this was the last time we played on Christmas day (and I pretty sure being told that there was a skeleton train service ;-) any of those around care to comment?)

  • Only lived up the road, so no travelling for me
  • Some very witty comments on this stream, sorry I can't match them. The game is always going to generate some interest. I was at the game with some mates who were not Charlton fans themselves. Amazingly, I let them talk me into leaving with the score at 6-5 in order to catch the last two races at the greyhound track in Woolwich Road. I heard the cheers go up as we were leaving the ground at Valley Grove and then another louder one as we reached the top of Floyd Road.

    Too soon?.........

  • At the POF, with the pens standing at 7-6, my mate turned to me and said "I like the sound of that ...."
  • I was 3 and still annoyed that my Dad didn't take me that day

    I said the same to my dad. He was at both games.
  • Why hasn't @plentyofshots posted up the vines of the goals yet? Come on get a grip!!!
  • Stayed till the end Buck Ryan with a diving header,only game
    to match this was Sunderland 4. 4
  • At the time Hudds were the only team ever to score six in a league game and lose. Does this still stand ?
