Finally, after making the bench last season, its congratulations to George Lapslie who becomes V846, the 846th first team Addick since we joined the league in 1921

Come on then give us a stat on debutants scoring and debutants from the academy scoring...
With Mark Marshall about to become V849 tomorrow at Fleetwood I though we could look back to V001 Joseph Hughes.
Joseph Hughes has that special place in Charlton history as he was our goalkeeper in our first ever football league game v Exeter on 27 August 1921. Charlton won 1 - 0 so he kept a clean sheet too.
He played just 19 league games for Charlton that season before leaving to join Orient. He has also played for Tufnell Park, South Weald, West Ham (1911-1915) Chelsea (1916 - 18) and Bolton 1919 (finished third in division 1). His last game for Charlton was on 24 December 1921.
Attached are some photos of Joe and of some other papers and medals that the family let us take. The Miller Cup (see attached medal) was a fundraising cup for the Miller Hospital in Greenwich.

Just asking
