  • Steve Brown maybe?

    Always puzzled that Luke Young never gets mentioned on these lists - played around 200 games, former club captain, 7 England caps, surely that's all the makings of a club legend.

    @I-SAW-POUSO-PLAY‌ I like your style.

    FYI - John Thomas Thornton Shreeve was, however, referred to as Jack as there was already a John in the team when he signed from Boldon upon the recommendation of his best mate - Mr Sam Bartram.

    Bartram

    Hewie

    Peacock

    Hales

    Leary

    Firmani


    transcend the generations.

    Players like

    Welsh

    "Sailor" Brown

    Charlie Vaughan

    Ufton

    Summers

    Kiernan

    Hurst

    Bailey

    Hinton

    Bonds

    Glover

    Tees

    Curtis R

    Flanagan

    Powell ( Colin)

    Gritt

    Johns

    Bolder

    Humphrey

    Walsh (Colin)

    Shirtliff

    Kinsella

    Mendonca

    Rufus

    Robinson (John)

    Powell (Chris)

    Parker

    Kiely

    Jackson (Johnnie)

    are legends to those who have seen them play and to those who have been told of their exploits.

    Players like:

    Smith (Norman)

    "Squib" Hammond

    Kinsey

    Berry (Les)

    Leaburn

    Brown (Steve)

    Kishishev

    Young (Luke)

    gave great service but somehow never quite got the credit or recognition they deserved.

    I'm sure I've missed someone important !!

    EDIT: I might mean Hirst rather than Hurst. Gordon of that ilk anyway. I've also missed out a Bent on the second list. Can you guess which one?!

    In my time watching Charlton:

    Paul Mortimer
    Steve Brown
    John Robinson
    Clive Mendonca
    Mark Kinsella
    Carl Leaburn
    Richard Rufus
    Dean Kiely
    Scott Parker
    Claus Jensen
    Chris Powell
    Johnnie Jackson
    Yann Kermorgant

    Jensen and Kermorgant may not have played a ton of games for us, but their quality and skill will always mean I have them in high regard.

    Chris Powell is number one by a long stretch.

    Came close to saying him
    but more of a cult hero than a legend
  • Carl Leaburn, Simon Webster, John Humphrey, Andy Peake and Robert Lee for me.

    This was when I loved Charlton the most.

  • Just noticed that I left Carl Leaburn out always a legend in my eyes. A player that me and my Dad could never agree on!
  • Been supporting charlton since early nineties.. so for me curbs is top of the pile.
    Plus in no particular order...

    At the risk of being branded pedantic I can understand you putting Curbs top of the pile of a thread entitled "Charlton Legends" but this one is "Players who you consider to be Charlton legends."

    As a "player" for us Curbs was alright but nothing special.
  • Saw JJ at London Bridge this morning actually.
  • Legend is a 'big' word !...therefore should be reserved to a select few - a lot of the people mentioned are just also-rans in my view in comparison the the following...

    Sam Bartram
    Jimmy Seed
    John Hewie
    Eddie Firmani
    Keith Peacock
    Killer
    Super Clive
    With maybe Curbs thrown in, these are the real 'legends' of CAFC- people who grabbed hold of it by the neck and changed the club.
