Fantastic, one of my favourite Charlton moments from an era when I lived abroad and hardly ever saw us play live. And all the better because: - it was the first time my son had ever seen Charlton win - it was the first time I'd seen Charlton win in the flesh for about 8 years and many attempts - we'd travelled from Sweden for the Barnsley match a few weeks before, only for it to be postponed 2 hours before kick off. Paddy Powell was not the only one in pieces that day! We'll love Jacko forever just for that goal, what a feeling at the end. Pure joy.
Love that Astrit was blowing after being on the pitch for about 30 seconds. I think he was less upset over his shot being saved than he was at the fact he was going to have to jog over to take the corner

Same here. I'm a fan in China. It's one of my favourite two Charlton moments when it comes to live matches, the other one being our 4-0 win over West Ham in early 2007. I've been lucky enough to have the opportunities to watch a few matches since this time last year but none of them have given me more joy and excitement than the QPR game, not even the Watford win in September. Proves a last minute winner is always the sweetest thing in football, especially when the opponents are the favourites to win the game.
That was a great moment, it was the presence of Marcus Tudgay on the pitch that made the difference :-) Seriously, a great corner. Astrit definitely has class on the ball, a shame he's so poor physically
Arjevich (or whatever) looked good, why'd no one like him ?
Eh? People DID like him. He was the only one of the original lot that came over that was actually any good.
True WCA , but fitness was a big issue with him.
Indeed it was. I think the two real criticisms I saw of Astrit were the fitness issue and his lack of pace. Both fair comments of course, but he was a cut above the rest we got around the same time.

Vital win
Last minute goal
Jacko - one of our own
It pissed 'Arry off
Because of the win and the atmosphere that day she's been hooked ever since
