Charlton name quiz

sam3110

Did we have a guy called Yardley as well? The name rings a bell (there's a Yardley Hotel by Eltham High Street)

mattaddick

Leroy Rosenior and Martin Duffield are both great shouts and take the total to 14

mattaddick

Well done BlackForestReds - Soares makes 15

mattaddick

Indeed we did have a Yardley - very good striker in the early 30s - 16 with seven to go

"Big" Ron Saunders...

mattaddick

Tut-tut, Tutt Tutt. Tutt has already been mentioned (but to your credit was the inspiration for this)

Ron Saunders

John "Fred" Saunders

Peter Etheridge?

mattaddick

Fantastic call on John Saunders - one match at Middlesbrough in April '63 - 18

mattaddick

I don't think Etheridge ever made a first team appearance shirty5

Pedro45

Lee Harmsworth

mattaddick

And Harmsworth makes 19 - last of three games was that 5-1 drubbing at Maine Road in front of almost 50,000 fans

Phil Babb

You're right LenGlover! Phil Babb made one long forgotten appearance as a goalkeeper against Brighton in 1997/98. (Not really....)

There was a bloke called Babb or similar who played a game or two and scored a goal. That's who I'm thinking of but he may not fit the category.

I'm doing this properly with no references hence my vagueness!

David Stocks!

Jimmy Siles (at least that's what the Chelsea announcer called Farmer when we played at the bridge. Jim told us after that he didn't mind them saying 'S' for Siles instead of Giles, he was just glad it wasn't a 'P'

mattaddick

You've plucked Stocks magnificently out of the memory banks Len. In and out of the side at left back in the early 60s. Takes us to 20.

Love it!

Maurice Setters

mattaddick

And Setters makes 21. Final game that ill-fated 5-0 thrashing by Leicester at The Valley on Easter Saturday 1970 which led to Eddie Firmani's sacking

mattaddick

There's three to get and they're all fiendishly difficult. If anyone can get them without looking them up then that's brilliant. I certainly couldn't.

There has to be a Malcolm or a Sykes or something somewhere?
