I was there and went straight over to Wembly Arena afterwards to see the Jam in their farewell tour supported by Big Country.
I was there at the game and then the Jam at Wembley, also went to the 1st night at Wembley as well. Bitter sweet really as the gig on Saturday was the last time I saw the band.
Apart from local aways, this was a very lean time for me actually watching Charlton live, I just could not afford trips to London back then.
Shortly before the Newcastle match, I had been given a company van and as I was not working, decided to use it and drive to London for this game even though the van not for personal use. I got on the motorway at Knutsford and before I reached Sandbach, the timing belt went.
I never did get to that game and with no breakdown membership, getting towed back home off the motorway cost me a small fortune.
