in General Charlton
Watching Tony Craig on Saturday I worked out that Bristol Rovers were the fourth team I had seen him play for against Charlton . I have seen him play for Palace , Millwall and Brentford previously .

It would even have been a fifth but he was recalled by Millwall the day before he was due to appear against us for Orient .

I am sure there must be someone who has played for more clubs against us than four but I am not sure who . Anyone got any ideas ?

    Steve Agnew used to play against us every week in the early 90s. Is it Perkins, with the blond hair? He seems to play against us a lot.

    Edit Agnew is 3, possibly 4 at a push. Perkins could be 7 or 8.

    John Burridge seemed to play against us for loads of teams. In fact, in the 1970s I seem to remember assuming the opposition would comprise Burridge in goal, and ten outfield players, whoever we were playing.

    I suspect he probably played against us, for many of the teams he played for, including Blackpool, Aston Villa, Sheffield United, Palace, QPR, Wolves, Southampton, Newcastle and Manchester City.

    That is as many as nine clubs.

    Perkins: Stockport, Colchester United, Barnsley, Blackpool for sure. Possibly Wigan and Rochdale too.

    Didn't he play against us for Wigan last season and Rochdale this? Did we play Stockport when he was there?

    I’d argue he was playing for the opposition when he was playing for us.

    Not sure we played Blackpool or Birmingham when he was there. Might be wrong though.

    I'm assuming Peter Crouch has done a fair few - Spurs, QPR, Pompey, Villa, Norwich, Saints & Liverpool?

    Think he scored against us, away at Bristol City when he was loaned out at Arsenal.

    Crouch was one of the first I thought of
    Only played against us for Villa, Southampton & Liverpool

    As far as I can see he's played against us for Barnsley, Blackpool, Rochdale, Stockport & Colchester - 5 clubs
    plus he was an unused sub vs Wigan too

    Didn't he score at the valley after City had signed him in a Desmond? Think it was early 93.

    Yes I was at the Stockport match and remember him.

    I missed Wigan last season and didn't know whether or not he played when we played Rochdale the other week. Hence my saying possibly.

    If you're sure about those two then he has played for 6 clubs against us.
