I think he was in the same Charlton youth team as me, Ray Harford, Billie Bonds and Keith Peacock. Cannot remember any more

I remember David Stocks.

He played as a left back and came into the side when John Hewie was injured in the 1962/63 season. He was in and out of the first team for a couple of seasons before leaving for Gillingham I think it was from memory.

441 career appearances with Charlton, Gills, Bournemouth and Torquay - impressive - retired 1977 - well done sir

When I saw David play the Charlton X1 was something like this:-

Wakeham

Sewell

Stocks

Bailey

Hinton

Tocknell

Kenning

Lucas / Henderson/ Kennedy

Matthews

Edwards

Glover / Peacock

Jim Ryan also played instead of Matthews or Edwards at times too.
