    When are they going to put John Hewie on that board ?
    When the fans vote for him.

    You get three choices every year in the three eras, Hewie has been on the short list but never won the vote.

    Me too. Still my favourite player of all time, and a gentleman to boot.

  • Happy Birthday Eddie.
    A great player sometimes I think he is my favourite all time Charlton player other days, I go for Stuart Leary it was that close between them.
  • Happy Birthday Eddie - my hero!
