Greatest Footballing Drama ?

edited June 2007 in General Charlton
I can only off the top of my head think of two that were above our Wembley game, in terms of drama.

1966 World Cup final - Home nation winning in extra time, especially with a contraversial goal
Arsenal at Anfield - Delayed last of season, top two battling it out, decided on virtually the last kick of the game.

But there must be loads more, surely ?

  • Blackburn nearly blowing it on the last day at Anfield

    Reading v Bolton in the play offs a couple of years before us was pretty dramatic
  • Can't remember the team but that keeper scoring and keeping his team in the league about 5 years ago.
  • Either of the Liverpool v Newcastle 4-3 matches

    Jimmy Glass for Carlisle? Circa 1998.
  • Don't know the year but i remember a Gillingham v Man City play off final at Wembley that was 0-0 with 10 minutes to go then the Gills scored twice and led 2-0 going into injury time but City somehow scored twice to take it to ET and won on penalties.
  • Suppose the Jimmy Glass one is up there. Nothing will beat that Arsenal / Liverpool one though in my book

    yup that's the one.
  • Man u V Munich 1999
  • Bayern v United in 1999, last 3 minutes was drama at it's finest

    That, for me is the only one that gets close to the Play off final

    on saturday night there was a "footballing years" on telly and it was 1998. that bloke left carlisle after that as they didn't offer him a new contract. he now works in an office doing 9-5.

    no mention of charlton in the whole programme.
  • OK we still went down, but what about the game at Villa Park in 99, I think we won it 4-3 with Brownie in goal?

    I remember walking out to applause from the Villa fans.

    what did you do ? :-)
  • What about the 7-6 versus Huddersfield.

    If that happened now most of us would have been back in the Oak at 1-5.

    Especially after that cheating knut Alan Gunn had awarded Leeds a free-kick for a handball that never was and which he couldn't possibly have been in a position to see even if it had been.
