I'm pretty sure it was one of the games involving Charlton just after WWII Apr 25 02, 10:12 PM

I was right - in fact the ball burst in both the 1946 and 1947 finals in which Charlton played. Apr 25 02, 10:20 PM

To answer your question in more detail, the 1946 FA Cup Final was between Derby County and Charlton Athletic (Derby won 4-1) and the 1947 Final was contested by Charlton Athletic and Burnley (Charlton won 1-0). Both games went to extra time and the ball did indeed burst on both occasions. Apr 26 02, 6:48 AM

Does anyone know where the CONCACAF Gold Cup finals will be held? It is an international soccer cup and I know where some semi-final games are being played but do you know where the finals are being held for 2003? Which player managers have played in an English F.A. Cup final? The semi-final games for the Powergen Challenge Cup will be played on neutral ground - but will both games be played at the same ground, on simultaneous days, and what ground will it be? Does anyone know of a Pidgin English translation site...trying to translate 'hao iu stap'?
