Charlton Life Hall of Shame: The 80s

edited August 2008 in General Charlton
So who were the worst players of the 80s - think there could be a few for this one.

My nominations are:

Ruben Agboola - we should be banned from loaning Southampton defenders
Jim Stannard - One game 4 goals conceded
Carl Leaburn - obviously
Kenny Achampong - great song, crap player!
Steve Dowman - Poorest of some very poor early 80s defenders

    leaburn - you are having a laugh mate he's a legend.

    Ralph Milne, without a doubt

    Andy Peake (sorry mate)
  • Oggy RedOggy Red
    Midfielder David Campbell (the 2nd one, signed from Forest)

    Centre half Peter Shaw with the expanding waistline.

    Paul Curtis at fullback


    Not fair to include Carlo in the 80's - he was only a kid thrust into the top league before he was ready.

    "Paul Curtis at fullback"

    Sorry, he can't be included after his late winner at Craven Cottage (our first away victory for over a year)

    Oh God, please no - not the Leaburn debate again.

    Next thing you know someone will be asking whether it's right that Valley Gold members get priority tickets!
  • Oggy RedOggy Red
    BTW - do you think it's right that Valley Gold members get priority tickets ....?
  • leftbehindleftbehind

    Absolutely - you get what it says on the application form. No other reason for stumping up £10 a month is there - would be financially better of spunking a tenner on scratch cards!

    Ahem.......I don't think so...!

    Terry Bullivant for me.

    He cost big money by our standards yet was totally useless in my opinion.

    David Campbell 2's winning goal at Tottenham gets him out of gaol for me...

    I have to say I always liked Andy... and he scored the odd goal from midfield... im not sure he should be in here...

    what do you reckon???
  • PeanutsMolloyPeanutsMolloy
    Peakey had his moments (at Portman Road in particular I seem to recall) and I can't fault him for effort but he was excruciatingly slow and gave the ball away so often.

    thought we got the chubby donkey from port vale! paul miller has got to have been one of the worse (apart from the chelsea away goal)
  • Oggy RedOggy Red
    Well spotted, ads .........you're right. Andy Jones from Port Vale.
    Got confused with the Welsh connection.
  • roseandcrownroseandcrown

    Joe McLaughlin wasn't too great either as I recall, especially considering what we paid for him

    Snap.

    I remember big rows between the pro and anti Peake brigades on the Sainsbury's terrace at Sellout. I was firmly in the latter camp.

    Leaburn = Charlton Legend Fact Locked on - end of discussion!

    Agree that it has to be Ralphy Milne - how did he end up at Man Utd?
  • LedgeLedge
    David Campbell - i know he scored the winner against the spuds at WHL which was a great day out before during and after but he was AWFUL how on earth he was an International , albeit NI, I 'll never know.

    Port Vale we bought him from didn't we

    Steve Dowman and Peter Mountfield

    David campbell without a doubt and he was an international too boot. Carl leaburn is a legend , it was not his goal scoring (which was poor) it was his goal assists , plus i see him score at villa park , always remember mike flannagan pushing him over to the charlton fans at the final whistle to milk the laughter and applause.
    P.S Ralph Milne another legend - His big , his fat , his arse is on the ground ralphie milne , ralphie milne.
  • scabbyhorsescabbyhorse
    Anyone remember Andy jones miss from 2 yards at oldham?
  • scabbyhorsescabbyhorse
    Paul Bacon , will not add to that.
  • northstandstevenorthstandsteve
    can't have Paul Bacon tried his nuts off everytime he played,Ralph Milne was pony,Leaburn I loved him
