WEMBLEY 100 CHARLTON 606

Football On This Day – 28th April 1923

Bolton beat West Ham United 2-0 in the FA Cup Final. It was the first match to be played at Wembley Stadium and the last FA Cup Final not to be all-ticket. The official attendance was 126,047 but perhaps over 200,000 gained access to the ground. The match, which kicked off 45 minutes late, became known as the 'White Horse Final' in honour of the policeman on a white horse who helped keep the crowds back behind the touchlines to allow the match to be played.

Football On This Day – 28th April 1973
Bobby Charlton played in his 606th and last League match for Manchester United – a 1-0 defeat against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge. His six League goals that season was enough to see him finish as the top scorer for United in 1972/73 when the club finished just above a relegation spot. On the same day his older brother Jackie played his last League game, for Leeds against Southampton at the Dell. Jackie's whole League career was at Elland Road although Bobby went on to play for Preston after leaving Old Trafford.
