Johnny Summers

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Johnny Summers (died 1962) was a soccer striker who scored 104 goals for Charlton Athletic F.C.

Johnny engineered one of the most remarkable comebacks in football history; Charlton were 5-1 down against Huddersfield with half an hour to go with only 10 men; they won 7-6 in the Second Division at The Valley, 21 December 1957. Johnny scored five goals set up two and scored a six minute hat-trick. Summers later revealed that he changed his boots at half-time after his old pair had started falling apart.
