Can't find a thread on this. No recollection whatsoever of this bloke, who must have played for us in the last 20 years. I am a sad bastard and usually remember pretty much everyone, can only assume that he never actually got anywhere near the first team - given he moved to Porto I still would have thought I'd have heard of him though.

Henry Irving

Seems Chris Parkes, who has signed every player at every level for the past 25 years, has never heard of him either.

Sad story but seems the link to Charlton Athletic is tenuous at best.

I was reading about this yesterday and couldn't place the name i thought the beer had wiped him from my memory.

RIP all the same.

Fair enough, if a bit odd.

Sad story as you say. RIP.

Just saw this story and looked up local paper in Herts - says here he played in Special Olympics as well as pro football for Charlton and Porto - http://www.hertsandessexobserver.co.uk/Mum-partner-pay-tribute-exCharlton-Porto-footballer-family-man-Charles-Goodwin-aftermystery-death/story-21877312-detail/story.html
