Lennie Lawrence has been working in football for over 30 years, but it was his nine turbulent years in charge of Charlton, whilst dealing with the fall-out of the move from The Valley amid limited resources that 'Houdini' will ultimately be remembered.
Lennie has now penned the story of his rise from school teacher to football manager, recounting the many tales along the way.
Charlton Life is now offering you the chance to win a signed copy of 'Lennie'.
We asked the great man the following question:
"looking back from all the time you managed Charlton, who on reflection would be the first three players you would put on your teamsheet'.

That's easy it's............
Oh hang on a minute not giving my answer away to you lot.
I hope that when you announce the winner, you also provide a tabulation of names and the number of votes that they received. It would be interesting to see how many different players got votes, and the amount of support they received.
Your e-moniker father is a candidate.
Surely it is just one email, with your 3 names.
Not 3 different goes, where you name just one player.
One entry per person, with your three names. Len, i've been generous and counted your 2nd entry as your daughters.
Come on guys, even if you're not bothered about the book (though i'm sure it would make a nice Christmas present for someone), it would be interesting to get your guesses on who the three might be.
I'm happy with 2 or the 3 but the 3rd is proving tough
I think you'll find that I have
I'm sure of it
where do I send the cheque again? :-)
I have 3 names but I don't know where they currently live!
And as I have got the book for Christmas, should by any sort of miracle I win it.
I'll raffle it for Demelza
As they say, you've got to be in it to win it !
Can I have my entry fee back please.
Winner and the breakdown will be announced later / tomorrow.
I've just checked back and discovered he's three were different to what i thought it was ! What an absolute prize bell. I was about to score the whole thing completely wrong !!
