    Sam Bartram - 623 appearances and no goals.  The stats speak for themselves.


    I think he once took a penalty , hit the bar and then had to run back to clear his own line
    He did 16th February 1946, as this young Brummie testifies:  http://brianwilliams.org.uk/diary/1946.html

    For huge waste of wages vs poor effort, slowness, being out of condition and lack of end of product, miserableness and holding Charlton players back coming through the ranks, it has got to be Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink.

    Have to agree with the Faye / Traore / Hasselbank school of thought.......though Andy Jones used to drive me bloody mad with his inability to hit a barn door at six yards! At least he was trying I suppose.

    Andy Reid annoys the hell out of me because he didn't do anything, just looked like he might.  Then he quit the club having done nothing more than get relegated.


    Strongly, strongly disagree with this! Can't believe his name has been mentioned on this thread! He was a superb creator great vision and passer and his departure tore up our promotion chances. We were sat in the play offs with an outside chance of automatic promotion in January, then he got injured and we managed to put in a couple of reasonable performances without him so Pards decided that "we could cope without him" (albeit potentially under pressure from above to cash in), which (to me at least) was clearly even at the time a huge error. We couldn't create anything without him and hence we careered down the table and finished well adrift of the play offs.

    I loved watching Reidy. Great passion, there was a picture of him celebrating with Todorov after he scored the winner at Palace, he looked like he was going as mad as the rest of us! Obviously he was injury prone which we knew when we signed him, but I really rated him - a real creator, somebody he can do something with the balll, is what we have been missing since he left in my opinion, even more than a competent finisher up front.

    Agreed. It's nonsense to mention the likes of Reid.
    Always looked slightly overweight, but it didn't seem to hamper his effectiveness.
    A seriously good player.

    Not if you saw his debut at the Den on Boxing Day. Filling Deadly Derek's boots (just sold to Derby County) Tony scored a late equalizer.

    Derek Hales was more than happy to tell anyone who would listen last week that the the Danish lads we signed in the 70s were the worst he had seen.

    I thank you. If you scroll back I said Viggo Jacobsen   !

    The other Danish guy was centre forward Johnny Oosterguard (sp), he wasn't great, but not the worst. Jacobsen was ! Worst player since 1972 anyway.

    Conversations on other threads are getting derailed and off topic- we could start a new thread for “The worst signings made” or post it the comments here about worst signings or bad Charlton players

    I know it’s a conversation going back over a decade but how is Sam Bartram’s name even mentioned?

    Because he played that many games without scoring...

    Alan McCormack. Utter shite and midfielder who didn't like a tackle.

    He was quite good for a while in the championship , before Pardew resorted to lumping it up to Chris Iwelumo.  His lack of fitness in the premier league and subsequent injury was a large part of our relegation . A midfield of him, Song, Zheng, Thomas would have been quite tasty .

    Mikel Alonso. 
    One appearance so perhaps unfair but he genuinely looked like a middle-aged accountant by day, who’d won a competition to play at The Valley.

    Polish Pete, that French keeper Thuram something or other, Matt Penney off the top of my head.

    Pape Souaré away to Shrewsbury, I had the misfortune of being at pwoper facking wall for Mike smalls performance, but he was Alan Shearer in comparison.

    Kishishev worst player? All I can think is the people who think he's our worst player never actually saw us play in the prem. Ridiculous choice.
    I think they’re trying to be funny if not ironic, but failing miserably.

    In recent (I.e. the past 30 odd years) it’ll be a random loanee like Nile John or Matt Penney or a youth team player who got 10 minutes in a JPT match. Of all time it’s probably some bloke from the 1920’s who had cholera and rickets and could hardly walk.

    Just looked him up and he only played 8 games for us, thought he played a lot more than that.
