Dale Stephens

edited August 2011 in General Charlton

Just wondering how he has been getting on?

He started his career down at gigg lane before he moved to Oldham for a nominal fee and a decent sell on fee so thanks for the 200k we got out of it :)

I saw his Goal first game of the season wasnt it? looked ok to me haha he once scored a beast for us against bradford i think 30 yarder top corner but never did anything else :(

Will he be playing tomos?

    He's mustard mate. Complimented very well by Danny Hollands. Will 100% be starting unless he's picked up and injury in training this week.

    Been crying out for his type of player for years - only more to come from him as well

    was quiet against scunthorpe but before that he has been different gravy. the type of player we havent had for a long time, probably since andy reid left. looks like he can make things happen with neat touches and his finish against bournemouth was quality.

    good to hear always liked Dale at gigg thought he could be a really good player but he fell out with Alan Knill early doors and soon left shame really because everyone could see he was going to be a good player he just needed more time and thats why he never did much else except the top corner goal.

    He only ever got played 20 mins here and there unfortunatly

    Thought he would want to make an immpresion after the way Alan Knill treated him unless he was to pumped up for it??

    Basically the ginger tool (knill) came in thought he would just not use our youth and left him to rot DS as far as i am aware was the only one that stood up to him and said I can make the grade in this team give me some mins on the pitch and i will show you Knill didnt like it and he offered him the same terms he was on at the end of the season because he knew someone would come in for him with a bigger wage and he left on bad terms with Knill.

    And he has gone on to prove he was good enough for us!! but to be fair Knill did take us from 22nd to 13th that season in his first 4 months!!

    He's an amazing player, far too good for this level. As for your profile name, you could be mistaken for a Charlton fan!

    Wouldn't mind him as back up keeper!!

    He's retired now i think? But can be called upon in an injury crisis?

    Dale (and Danny Hollands) are a breath of fresh air for our midfield. It's been a pleasure watching them so far this season and a while since we've been able to say that.

    As for Deano...personally, I am delighted he wasn't English! Saw his debut for the Republic in 1999 when he came on in our play-off game against Turkey. A couple of old guys were sitting in front of us and I was so proud to say "Charlton" when they asked who he played for. Lucky to meet him a couple of times. Top class guy!!

    But Deano is English !

    Born in Manchester, got an Irish accent like you DIG, I bet!

    ;o)

    And he did have the best accent just like me OR :D

    You could put, "Oop Dale" on your away shirt.

    Mind you, people might think you're Rochdale.
