    Chapple (crocking their keeper in the process as I remember) and Linger's only Charlton goal I think.

    1. MK Dons moved from Wimbledon to Milton Keynes but where was it proposed that Charlton should move to under the Glickstiens?

    In his biography Jimmy South Stand said that the then owners had thought about moving the Club to South Africa.

    2. Who scored our winner in our first ever first class penalty shoot out?

    Mark Stuart netted the winner at Everton in 1987. Charlton won 6 - 5 on pens after a 2 -2 draw in the full members cup.

    Charlton had 1 - 0 and then 2 -1 down in the first 90 mins but Lee and Miller equalised.

    AET Reid missed, Walsh scored and Miller missed. Neville Southall made it 3 -1 to the Toffemen but Melrose and peake both scored to level it. Humphrey scored (4 -4) then Shipley made it 5 -5. When Bolder saved Pointon's kick Stuart put us ahead for the first time in the game and won it.

    6. "Unmatched by the record of any club in the British Isles, cradle of Association Football, or soccer, the history of Charlton Athletic, one of the most sensational aggregations of the booting game every" From where and when does this quote come?

    7. Who said "I've not learned too much about football but I've become an expert in company law"

    Lennie Lawrence during the winding up of the Club in 1984


    8. "You'll never believe this Mum but we've just beaten Liverpool". Which former Charlton player was thus quoted.

    Jeff Wood who after leaving Charlton was playing for HJK Helsinki in the European Cup in 1982 when they won 1 - 0. Liverpool won the return game 5 - 0

    9. In October 1994 Reading beat Charlton 2 - 1 at the Valley. An 89th substitution saw Reading replace one player with a Charlton connection with another. Who were they?

    Parkinson replaced former youth team player Michael Gilkes
