This is a long story.
Mark Fish used to live in Chislehurst and became friends with someone I know a little and Baron Paolo knows very well. He did a bit of driving and other stuff for the South African. I think he may even have been at the famous glass table party but that's for another day.
As a little thank you Mark Fish gave him a signed and framed shirt from the 2003/4 season. After a few house moves he realised he was carting this thing around so gave it to his Charlton supporting pal, the Baron. Who gave it to me. Who is now auctioning it, at the Baron's suggestion, for the CAFC Academy
So there you are. Signed by 22 players including Di Canio, Powell, Jensen, Hreidarsson, Euell, Kiely, Holland, Bartlett, Lisbie, Svenson, Parker, Fortune and that's just the ones I can make out. Any help with the others much appreciated.
For many the best team and highest point in the Club's recent history.
In very good condition, 30" x 25" and was framed by the Royal Gallery on Royal Parade, Chislehurst.
All the money goes to the CL fund raiser for the CAFC Academy. At Paul Hart's request we are trying to raise money for another vehicle to transport young players and keep them safe.
Items like this don't come along very often so bidding starts at £75. It's heavy so you going to have to collect or meet up at the Valley to hand over.
Usual rules; Please don't bid unless you can and intend to pay. Auction ends next Monday 26 November at 5.00 pm
Happy Bidding

Also in 2nd pic can see it is Chris Powell (whatever happened to him?) but not the other four.
In 3rd pic Holland 8 and Shaun Bartlett but not sure on others below All:sports
In 4th pic can read Matt Svenson, Euell 9, Herman 12 and Di Canio 11. No idea on the others.
Still think it is cheap at the price
£150 is getting closer to a realistic price but not there yet.
Still plenty of bidding time.
