This was my first game at Anfield as a 13 year old. I managed to clamber up some of the metalwork in the Kop and held on for dear life. Thatch of the Day showed Charlton’s 4th goal for long after this game was played and it always reminded me of my first experience. I travelled to Liverpool from 90 miles away in Staffordshire, each part of my journey by bus, as a 13 year old, on my own! Would that happen nowadays?

I once saw Tomy Smith talking about this match. He said that before the match Shankly spoke to the players and siad that Charlton was an old man, Best had been out drinking, Law was out injured, you'll go out ther and hammer them. This was supposed to be part of Shankly's great pyschological gifts. Tommy finished the anecdote by saying "they thrashed us 4-1". I can't imagine Emlyn Hughes telling that story as it undermines his version of 'Shanks'.
