Venerable Bede
Full Back
Charlton was an awful day. I watched it in the Phene Arms in Chelsea with a certain George Best and a mate of his who used to play for Lincoln. It is the first and only time I have wept after a football game although to be fair if you are in the same pub as Bestie you may have had a few.Yep … you have to have experienced extra time penalties at Wembley agains Charlton to know how bad life can be … funnily enough some youngster last week was bemoaning how bad it is today … not even close to the 1970s not even close
I went to Charlton when the lads were playing a few times after that and it is a friendly club but that day!
