Larkin and Folan turned the West Ham tie

Chesterfield beat West Ham 2–1 on 24 October 2006 after conceding an early goal. Marlon Harewood put the visitors ahead in the fourth minute, leaving the home side to recover during the rest of the third-round match.

Colin Larkin equalised in the 54th minute and Caleb Folan scored the winner in the 86th. Both Chesterfield goals came after half-time, with the decisive strike arriving close to the end. The third-tier side had overturned a lead held by Premier League opponents.

That timing is the key to the West Ham story. It was a comeback completed late in normal time, rather than a penalty success or an extra-time winner. The contemporary UEFA report records the three scorers and places the result among that evening's League Cup ties, making it useful for supporters looking back at the winning moments.

Four home ties, from Wolves to Charlton

The campaign began with a goalless draw against Wolves, followed by a 6–5 penalty-shoot-out win. Chesterfield then beat Manchester City 2–1 in round two, before defeating West Ham by the same score in round three. The two Premier League victories were consecutive steps in one run.

Charlton were the fourth-round opponents. That tie finished 3–3, but Chesterfield lost the penalties 4–3. The opening and closing matches therefore both went to shoot-outs, with opposite outcomes, while the two middle ties were won outright.

Reading the four results in order gives a fuller picture than either giant-killing alone: Wolves, Manchester City, West Ham and Charlton, all at home. The penalty scores should stay separate from the match scores, particularly for the goalless opening tie. Chesterfield reached the fourth round but did not progress to the quarter-final.
