Charlton Cheating?

edited April 2008 in General Charlton
Just thinking about Jerome Thomas and how good he is at winning free kicks...what other players or incidents can you remember where Charlton hoodwinked the officials?

(I know it's not really like us and we're usually the virtuous or 'hard-done-by' ones, but there must be a few examples!)

    Steve Brown.... v Leicester. gotta be the top answer! although he didn't quite manage to convince the ref, he did a pretty good job of keeping up the pretence!

    Talel El Karkouri had a habit of faking injuries and doing 8 forward rolls across the pitch a few times last season

    The honest pro Matty Holland against Arsenal a few years back (won a penalty that Di Canio converted)...he was never touched!

    Not an example of "getting away with it" but Mark Aizelwood got booked at Watford for calling for a Watford player (who had his back to him) to leave it when the ball came towards him.

    He did it against Liverpool at home, not sure if thats the one you mean? Never a penalty but he got up and scored it.

    Lisbie at Stamford bridge on Jorge Costa's debut - didn't cheat but caught his own heels near the corner flag on 90 mins. We got a free kick which resulted in Lisbie heading in the winner.

    Sweet.

    Bartlett against Spurs a few seasons ago. He made a goal line save trying to make out it came of his head. Classic!!

    I recall Matt Tees stumbling in the box and getting a penalty when there was no one within 5 yards (well, that's how I remember it). It caused the crowd to laugh rather than cheer.

    I remember Gordon Watson selling a dive a few years ago, can't remember the game.

    Considering his size/build, Hreidarsson was a tremendous diver. One particular 'fall' against Everton at The Valley really stands out (Euell scored two pens that night in a 2-2 draw).

    A certain Martin Pringle took some absolute belting dives and occasionally he just fell over!!!

    Jim Melrose was usually guilty of falling over as though he'd been shot.

    Mark Kinsella got away with it at just about every corner he ever took. I can't remember him ever placing the ball within the area.
