    He also bowled with my ex father in law Dave Banfield, also had the pleasure of meeting him whilst on holiday in Ibiza. Had a few games of pool, he was good at that as well!!
    Yes nice bloke.
  • Ask him if he remembers coaching Sutcliffe Park FC in about 1967. The little kid with dark hair was me!
  • Ask him if Rodney Marsh is still in his pocket !
  • Does he still come to games regularly?
  • Why did that excellent 68/69 side fall apart the following season?
    What was Eddie Firmani like as a manager?
  • Excellent questions, @Six-a-bag.
  • He is in this Saturday, its your last chance to get a question in

  • Peter did a bit of coaching at Eltham Green for a while when I was in the 6th form so that would be around 1971-72 and recall he was a great bloke and a real gent. I also have to say he was a reaslly good player for CAFC.
  • If he looks at the modern game, is there a player that reminds him of himself back in his playing days? Similar style etc.
  • Would he be interested in co commontating on the Charlton Player for away games.
  • Peter and I lived a few doors apart in Keynsham Gardens when growing up in Eltham. If I remember correctly, he and his brother, Johnny, both went to Eltham Green School. When he joined Charlton, my late Dad forgave him for all the nights that he had spent kicking a ball about on the grassed area outside our house and really enjoyed Peter's many memorable encounters with Rodney Marsh. At the end of his playing career Peter worked for what today is the equivalent of British Gas and lived with his wife in Commonwealth Way, Abbey Wood. He subsequently moved to Spain and some 10 years ago, I met him again at the Altoreal Golf Club in Murcia and helped him to win a long-standing bet with another member by confirming that he had Captained the England Youth Team against Wales at Southampton. He still owes me a drink for that one and I hope that we will be able to renew our acquaintance when he visits the Valley tomorrow.

    Hi Peter... Hope you see this. It has been so long... George Gibbs here... I found this site and joined... Do you remember the night of your testimonal at the reception at the club in '74? I was with the two American girls... I loved playing for you at Dartford, we won promotion that year you managed and for the short time I knew you, you are a class person. Hope you are well, these days I live in the States in Up state New York. I am on face book so drop me a line... Great days, I watched you play for Charlton as a lad and you were so tough, fast tenatious defender. You would had gone to the top had it not been for your career ending injury. Hope my note finds you mate.... George Gibbs
  • Ask him how his bowling is these days. Met Peter a few times as he my dad played bowls as well . Nice bloke.
