The most permanent and visible person who has been around as long as I have been supporting Charlton (1967) and more. Wishing you a full and speedy recovery Keith.
Keith is a true legend Had the pleasure to speak to him in many occasions I remember him telling me how he was injured in the Cup game in 69 against Palarse This would result in him missing many games during the remaining part of the season His abcence would prove costly as we just missed out on promotion Get well soon Keith
A coincidence. I saw this after we came home last night from a meal out with neighbours. The husband is a Birmingham supporter, just turned 80. In the early 1970s he used to do some sponsorship through his business and got to know both Trevor Francis and Alan Campbell quite well. We were talking about our early football supporting experiences and I mentioned going to The Valley in the close season in the early 60s where the players trained in the car park and getting Keith Peacock's autograph. Then the next time I met him was about 55 years later when we had hospitality in the Keith Peacock suite. A very nice man. Got home to see this news. Wishing him a speedy recovery.
when my old man passed away Keith somehow got hold of my mobile number and personally called me to offer his condolences. I've also met him a few times since and he's a genuinely top bloke.
my Dad loved him and they would often chat about the old times

He broke into Charlton’s first team about a year after I first went to the valley, early 60’s IF I remember correctly!
All the best for a speedy recovery and future long good health.
