Why do old players no longer come back to do the valley gold draw?

It was always good to give someone a well deserved round of applause...

Darren Pitcher played for us in the early nineties and, after some moderate success most notably scoring the goal when we knocked high flying Blackburn out of the FA Cup, publicly declared that he was too good for us. He moved on to Palarse.
On his return to do the Valley Gold Draw his reception was a tad impolite shall we say:-)
The old players didn't really do it much if at all after that.0 -
thanks for that, it's a shame though - it would be great to get some of the more relatively recent players back, bartlett, rufus, robbo, fish...0

I can see a problem here. If they were to do the draw, you wouldn't be able to see them.

Unfortunately Garland got trapped in the door of a DLR train when he tried to re-locate from the Isle of Dog's. I often have to skip past his knarled parsnip legs whilst venturing over to Island Gardens. Occasionally when an old lady isn't fast enought to skip away from him on the platform, generally in mudchute, he can be heard all the way to Greenwich swinging a parsnip contacting said old ladies cabbage.... 'Ave it'. You can placate him with a full fat beer but don't give him spirits.
Due to Charlton's budgetary concerns we aren't able to decommission a DLR train and have him installed at the Valley. A feasibility study has been carried out if we were to move to the Millenium site, when he will actually be built into the Valley Gold Trombola expelling the winning ball out at lethal velocities:- especially towards any Keeganesque bubble perms.0 -

What happened to the People's Front ?0

And a bag of otter's noses while you're at it0

Probably because the actual draw now happens pre match so it would be embarrassing to get someone to come and pretend to do the draw.0

Bring out the boring MP quotes. Geeeeessssss.......................0

Intro: One of the most controversial, and some would say, scurrilous films of
the last year has been the box-office blockbuster, The General Synod's
LifeofChrist. Sarah Gould talked to Lawrence Vironconium-Bishop
of Wroxeter, the director of the film, and Alexander Walker, one of its
stoutest critics.
The film deals with the story of the rise of a simple carpenter's son,
one Jesus Christ, to fame and greatness, but many people have seen in
the film a thinly disguised and blasphemous attack on the life of
Monty Python. Python worshippers say that it sets out to ridicule by
parody the actual members of Monty Python who even today, of course,
are worshipped and revered throughout the Western World.
Interviewer: Alexander Walker, can I ask you first, What did you think of the
film?
Walker: It appalled me. I find it deeply offensive that, in what is still,
after all, basically a Python-worshipping country, fourteen-year-old
children can get to see this film. They get little enough proper
Python these days, without having this distorted garbage paraded about.
Int.: Bishop, you directed this film. Did you expect this kind of reaction?
Bishop: Well, I certainly didn't expect the Spanish Inquisition! Yes. Yes, I
did direct the film. And what I feel I *must* emphasize at once, is
that it is not an attack on Python. I'm not a Pythonist myself, but
obviously I have enourmous respect for people, like Alexander, who are.
Walker: Oh, come now bishop. The central figure in this film...this...er...
Bishop: Jesus Christ.
Walker: ...thank you, this "Jesus Christ" is quite clearly a lampoon of the
comic messiah himself, Our Lord John Cleese. I mean, look, even the
initials are the same!
Bishop: No. No, absolutely not. If I may try and explain. The Christ figure
is not meant to *be* Cleese, he's just an ordinary person who happens
to have been in Weston-super-Mare at the same *time* as Mr. Cleese.
Walker: No. No, really Lawrence, that's too...
Bishop: And...and, if I may finish...he is *mistaken* for the comic messiah
by credulous people of the sort who can see something "completely
different" in anything, and who follow him around in vast crowds...
ah...doing silly walks, and chanting "No, no, not the comfy chair",
and other slogans from the good Bok itself.
Int.: Alexander Walker--your comments on that?
Walker: No, I'm sorry, whatever the bishop may say, this is a highly
distasteful film. Have people forgotten how Monty Python suffered
for us? How often the sketches failed? I mean these men died for us.
Frequently.
Int.: Bishop, turning back to you, do you not agree that the film may affect
the position of Monty Python in our spiritual life?
Bishop: No, I hardly think so. If Python is immortal (as Pythonists believe),
I'm sure a mere film...
Walker: A tenth-rate film.
Bishop: ...I'm sure a mere film is not going to stop believers. Remember the
words of John Cleese: "When two or three are gathered together in my
name, the shall perform the Parrot Sketch..."
Int.: Indeed. "It is an ex-parrot..."
All: "...it has Ceased to Be."0 -
