Was that game 3-2 and were we 3 up with 5 mins to go. Sure i was at that game and when they scored their second i was under the temporary tv gantry in what would be the away end.
watching that 3-2 game I noticed our 3rd goal came from a big boot upfield from a defender, which found Robinson about 25 yards from goal. None of this tippy tappy fancy dan stuff. Perhaps someone should tell KR that this is the Charlton way of playing.
Also there, East terrace roughly level with the edge of the penalty area nearest the covered end. Will always remember that Hales volley and in particular the move that led to it. One of the best I've ever seen at the Valley.
I was standing in the Covered End pretty much on the line behind Hale's Golden Goal shot.
I remember thinking it was a good goal. When I watched it on the Big Match it was only when I saw the part played by Paddy in the build up that I realised it was such a special one.

We must have been pretty near each other. We always used to stand there, level with the penalty area, just below the walkway that ran halfway up the terrace
Apologies it was the 1-1 game. We got run by Rovers who were in our end. When Flanagan scores in the 2nd half, I can be seen in the front row raising my arms nervously as a young 15 year old. Made it back to the coach in one piece thankfully.
I was there for the Hull game. Dad always used to take us to the bit between the main stand and the covered end. I don't have a great memory for every specific game, but some do stand out and this is probably one of my earlier ones. Paddy was/is my favourite ever player and his run from right back, laying the ball off, crossing the pitch and picking it up again on the left wing (running past us) was brilliant. As far as I remember the only time that the Big Match had both the scorer and the player who made the assist in and gave them both awards.
