OTD

I have the programme from this match.

I wonder what the record attendance for a war time cup final was.

 

We had a centre half? around this time, a Darren somebody.
This does not look like Kevin Smith.

 

Whose Kevin SMIRH ???

 

Amazing night. Probably one of those that sealed my love affair with Charlton. I remember going back to Erith after the game and trying to sleep after the excitement, and then in the midst of a typically silent night, a car with Charlton fans beeping the hooter screaming past the house.

 

At a Bromley Addicks meeting around 18 months ago, Mortimer said Leaburn was the best striker he had played with.

I think Morts must have had a few before turning up.

 

I especially like the last line

 

Bob doesn’t look like that now

 

Like the rest of us mate.

 

That cheating b****** Durie was a foot outside the penalty area.

 

All ended in tears eventually, but what a game.

 

2 play-off defeats against Charlton, I imagine we're not very popular over there.
