I think the only time they got in the player who made the assist for the goal of the season as well.
Not sure what Killer was doing so far back at the start of the move, he must have got lost, but passed to Paddy who came out of the right side of defence, passed to Phil Warman and then got it again on the left wing (what was he doing over there???). Paddy left his marker on his arse as he glided past 9 year old me on the railings in the terrace between the main stand and the Covered End. Crossed with his wrong foot for Killer to hook it in brilliantly. Loved that team and Paddy was always my hero
I know im wrong here but I always think this is the match when the ref awarded a goal when the ball bounced off the wall to the side of the goal.
Paddy always a gent.
No that was Peter Hunt v Oldham back in 1972
Thanks. But somehow I relate it to the Hull match I can’t shake it off. Be prepared for me to repeat the same question in another year. Maybe I should add this to the you know when you’re getting old thread 🥸
At the very last seconds of the coverage I can be seen jumping around in the semi circle....I think...as above, maybe should on the getting old thread 🤔

As in total celebration, or come on I'll take the lot of ya!

So was I. I had a fantastic head of long blonde hair back then as a 12 year old. I don’t have to worry about washing that now.
I was somewhere near the floodlight in the "sam bartram entrance " corner
I was always amazed how the perilously erected " gantry " on the east terrace stayed up for the match not to mention the ubiquitous cables that would be deemed an health and safety risk now
Just watched the goal again and the part played by powell and it reminded me that we just expected killer or flash would score, that powell would be tracking up and down the wing beating the defender and crossing the ball. We wouldn’t always win of course but we’d start the day thinking we would.
If Branson or Bezos or some other zillionaire ever developed time travel, I’d love to go back to one of the night games at The Valley in that era (apart from the 5-1 loss to Luton LOL). It’s funny how the covered end was deafening when you were inside it, but just gave off a distant rumble from the outside.
Enjoyed seeing that, even if it was from one of the worst seasons ever - Lawrie Madden in Roy Keane mode, Gary Lineker scuffing wide from 8 yards out, and Steve Gritt with hair. Looked like a miniscule turnout from us not surprisingly.
The goal of the season had Glenn Hoddle in first and second place, if you ever wonder where English football went wrong at that time, the fact that he was treated with the suspicion that Grealish currently enjoys says it all.
That was comedy gold from Laurie Madden. I was at the Palace Liverpool game me Dad took me and me sister cos she fancied Kenny Daglish. Halfway up at the Holmsdale ended up wanting Palace to win as they had Flanagan and also the racist abuse aimed at Vince Hilare. After 10 years of watching Charlton it was the first top flite game I'd seen

Can you leave your CL credentials at the door as you leave please?

There was me thinking that the only female that fancied Dalglish was his missus.

And a superb pass from Phil Warman for Paddy

Great memories
Sounds familiar!
