Loved singing 'We've got two Sodjes'! Thought Akpo was ok for the level we were playing at and he was certainly committed to the cause. Not sure he would be any good at the level we're at now, especially as he must be getting on a bit.
Swindon match he put in the most memorable individual performance in 40 years supporting Charlton. Beat Mendonca at Wembley.
I'm never sure whether you're a WUM or a complete fool. No offence. :-)
Were you there? The guy was chasing down his own flick-ons. Awesome performance! I love Yann and Mendonca but they didn't have that effort in their locker.
I was there.I think he was making up for the stupidity of his brother in getting sent off by showing that one sodje cared about the team.To say it was better than Mendoncas performance at wembley is ridiculous. My main memory of him was the one man army substitute performance at Yeovil as we got soaked to the skin.

Well, you have established that you're not a WUM :-)
(Yes, I was there and have also been supporting Charlton for 40 years. His performance wouldn't rank in the top 500).
That era is perhaps summed up by Sodje S, Sodje A and Forster all playing non-league for Margate a few years back.
All three subsequently proved themselves better than that but it gives an idea of the depths to which we plummeted.
yep, cant believe we've signed a bloke who used to play for Hayes and Yeading and another bloke we signed is a non league goalkeeper that we're playing in central defence?! How desperate are we?
According to Wiki...Pawel Abbott scored six goals last season but this season appears to have scored 5 in 4 games for some mob beginning and ending with Z.
Was being marked by brother Sam, whos now at Pompey.
being a boring whatsit .. I checked Akpo and Sam on Wiki .. brothers born just over 8 months apart !! Akpo 31/1/80, Sam 25/5/79.. Mr and Mrs Sodje Snr were sure a busy couple

Quality assist.
I liked Sodje, bit of a donkey but had a couple of magic moments, and like everyone else said, would run over hot coals and broken glass for the cause

Do me a flavour
(Yes, I was there and have also been supporting Charlton for 40 years. His performance wouldn't rank in the top 500).
Two good headers.
I liked him.
Tall, strong, wore a red shirt, had no criminal convictions, kicked the ball towards the opposition goal .
I have seen far worse at the Valley over the last 6 years or so...
(Don't start a thread on McOxo)
Anyone remember Akpo's cousin Onome Sodje who was one of our colts a few years back?
