It was the 67th birthday of the Charlton stalwart on Thursday, and the Addicks have announced that a suite lounge at The Valley will now be known as the Keith Peacock Suite.
I can still picture Keithie running out of the players tunnel ball juggling all the way to the penalty spot before smashing the ball into the back of the net. What a player and what a man, congratulations Mr Charlton.
I had the pleasure of being taught tennis by Mr Peacock at Crown Woods in the late 60's early 70's (69/71).....I was so pleased but at that time there were a lot of 'Wall fans at the school and they tried to give him some 'jip'.........I said tried coz they lost!! Pleased for him a great person and Charlton through and through......I would still call him 'sir'....much respect!!
A belated happy birthday to Mr Charlton. If anyone portraide the spirit of Charlton he does, may you have many more of them and at least some of them in the Premiership.

Just because a part of the stand is named after a distinguished servant I don't think we should use that name
What next, a new name for the South Stand?
