1st October 1988 at Carrow Road (11,470) Norwich City 1 (1) (Linighan 16): Gunn, Culverhouse, Bowen (Townsend 64), Butterworth, Linighan, Crook, Gordon, Fleck (Allen 77), Rosario, Phelan, Putney. Charlton Athletic 3 (1) (Williams 23 67, Mortimer 61): Bolder, Humphrey, Reid, Mackenzie, Shirtliff, Peake, Bennett, Williams, Gritt, Leaburn, Mortimer. Subs. (not used) Jones, Stuart. Referee: P. Vanes (Warley) Order of goals: N CA(3) Booked: Humphrey. Lions top: Charlton's victory over Norwich left the door open for Millwall (who beat Q.P.R. 3-2 at The Den) to top the First Division for the first time in their history. Flanagan assist: When one of Paul Mortimer’s boots fell apart, former Charlton striker Mike Flanagan came to the rescue by loaning his boots to Mortimer. The Flanagan magic obviously rubbed off with Mortimer scoring.
