    According to a previous thread on here, David Whyte Whyte Whyte is knocking around Catford using the "I used to play for Charlton" line to get admission to the local gym.

    Paul Gorman - Last seen working the bar at Welling at our annual pre-season friendly a couple of years ago, looking fat and moaning about Curbs.

    Think someone on here saw Richard Rufus in the City recently. The priest story is a myth, think he's just a religious sort of chap.

    I'm sure someone can remind me what Garry Nelson is up to nowadays? See him down The Valley every season.

    Jesus, hadn't seen that - looks less "Killer" and more like the Village People's long lost golfing cousin! Not that I'd say that to his face, obviously!

    It's pretty sad that someone as legendary as Clive Mendonca is unemployed. I know Curbs offered him a role at the club when he retired and he turned it down but I'm surprised he's not at least coaching some kids somewhere. Surely the club could at least offer him a job as a match day host.

    Think he turned down the job with us because he wanted to return North with his family. Not sure how accurate the unemployment thing is, there was another thread about this recently:
