"Big Ship" another Charlton youth player who came through in the late 1960's early 1970's.
Used to hold his hands together when he jumped to head the ball.
Gone for too soon. RIP Dave.0 -

Yet another from my youth. Ship or Lurch as he was also affectionately known as was an old fashioned centre back who always gave 100%. Went on to become a policeman if I'm not mistaken.

Very sad news - RIP.
A wholehearted player and an absolute giant of a man. Very effective in the opposition penalty area at corners, when he used to charge in from the corner of the box, brushing opponents aside and, more often than not, get a header in on goal or knock the ball down into the danger area for people like Arthur Horsfield. There was always a roar of anticipation from the Covered End as Ship lumbered up for the set play.
He definitely became a policeman and I recall reading that he turned up in our dressing room at Craven Cottage when we were playing Fulham, as that was his local 'patch'.4 -
