I grew up down south and was taken along to a couple of Charlton games in my younger years before later being taken to Highbury.
1st game was this one: User Posted Link
Bob Bolder saved a penalty from, I think, Bryan Robson who fell on his bad shoulder during the game. Aside from that, Gordon Strachan bombing down the right wing, and a load of racial abuse from the home crowd aimed at their own players, I don't remember much.
Second game was this tournament's final at Wembley:

wasn't until years later when I found the old programme that I realised Charlton had knocked out Norwich in the semi. I didn't even know a Norwich team existed back then though.
I think my first Norwich game was this one - Timing is about right, was during the summer holidays so a good chance I was in Norwich and I seem to remember it was 0-0:
