I also went to the Charlton game and remember the sit in well. It didn't go down well with the Charlton or West Ham stewards.

So did i, & some cretin let off a tear gas cannister during the game. Eyes were still 'smarting' after the game.

It is no fun when someone breaks wind near you at a football match either .

Why oh why did someone have to put that on. Was at the game which was basically crap and left after 90 minutes when it was 1-0.was driving through the tunnel when I thought they read the score out as 2-1 to us. Couldn't get a proper signal and was totally unaware to I got home that we had won. 23 years on and it still wrankles with me

You weren't alone. I did stay until the end and remember our fans turning round and trying to get back in after the equalizer.

Chesterfield V Southend. 17th Oct 1981. We finish a respectable 7th in the old 3rd Division.
Finally find a clip of Derek Spence scoring for Southend, and it cuts out, Lol.

I was at that game, the “away” end wasn’t segregated which was nice. We won at Brentford two days later as I recall.

I believe that game was boycotted by the United for Southend group

I still went to the game but remember Dozens staying in the Spread Eagle

Yep ....it was the united for Southend group...they even issued badges....I am selling one on ebay now!

A bit quick and poor quality, but worth watching, as it's a nice header from Red Rum and for Francis Laurent's first goal in England. Come to think of it, you don't get many games with 3 goals that are all headers.

Cracking header by Laurent (liked him as a player).
