Noticed that the old cafc dream team chestnut had been dredged up again
At the risk of being negative and treading closely around the liable laws would anyone like to propose their cafc all time worst X1.Perhaps those players we loved really but we knew were no good ,or those that may have been good at one stage but let themselves down when they got here .Other than Andy Reid feel free to include any Dowie signings .Go on you know you want to !(From a latter era Gary Churchhouse and Alan Dugdale spring to mind for example )

How can you include Tommy Myhre cafcdan? id like to know your reasons?
Mine based on recent times.
GK: Andy Petterson - Was dreadful in 98/99 season in the premiership.
RB: Danny Butterfield - Wasnt as bad as some thought but loaning a palace player whilst bottom of league isnt the way forward!
CB: Tahar El Khalej - Past it
CB: Carl Tiler - Really didnt rate him
LB: Djimi Traore - No explanation
RM: Dennis Rommedahl - Frustrating
CM: Amdy Faye - See Traore
CM: Chris Bart-Williams - Apart from Derby free kick, didnt do much and rarely noticed when he was playing
LM: Lee Cook - unfit and couldnt be bothered
ST: JFH - Disappointing, Overweight, Moan Moan Moan, 2 Goals
ST: Matt Svensson - Good in 00/01, poor for the next 3 seasons and didnt score.
Subs:
Tony Caig
Scott Sinclair
Greg Halford
Izale McLeod
Chris Dickson
Neil Redfearn
John Barnes
Keith Gillespie
Tresor Kandol0 -
So far, this would make encouraging reading for Pawel Abbot.0

Thought Myhre was one of the worst keepers I have seen play for Charlton and that was what I was basing the team on- players I have actually seen since supporting Charlton. Thought he was a very average keeper for the League we were in, not agile enough and let in a lot of goals from distance. For some reason the Boro cup away game sticks in my mind when the free kick from 35 yards went in and I think Myhre should have saved it.
Maybe a little harsh but could not think of someone else in the last 13 years.0 -
He did keep us in a good few games though Dan, remember the 0-0 away draws with Liverpool and Newcastle?0
-
Tony Lange
Paul Curtis
Paul Friar
Alan Dugdale
Bobby Goldthorpe
Gary Churchhouse
Dick Tydeman(thought he would be a good player but never did it)
Paul Bacon
Hugh McAuley
Barry Endean
Dick Plumb(who else)0 -
The worst thing about this team, is that I can think of loads of possibilities; especially from the last few seasons!
I can't remember Svensson being that bad....surely McLeod should usurp his place? Not least for the cash that Pardew spunked on him and the fact that we ended up releasing the useless lump on a free!
...and he was certainly worse than Kandol/Dickson!0 -

Guess on reflection maybe Petterson would be more suited to this list. Looking back he did make some good saves at Anfield, just for some reason Boro/Bolton away hinder his spell in the side.0 -

Truly an ex-Addick team incapable of scoring a goal, let alone winning a game! I shudder just remembering some of those names....0 -
More subs (not mentioned above I think...) - Tony Hazell; Mike Kelly; Ruben Agboola... Urghhhh!0

Talking of useless older players John Sewell never impressed me at right back.0

I know I'll get flamed for this but the Bulgarian headless chicken always frustrated me, at least 2 major gaffes per game followed by a schoolboyish rush after the ball to try and put his error right.
As Peacock once said if we don't know where he's going to be how do the opposition. But I'd rather we knew as he unbalanced the side too often for my liking.
BTW it's Kishishev.0 -
Stopped reading there.[cite]Posted By: cafcdan18[/cite]Myhre0 -
rommedahl- when we bought him i thought he was gonna be the dogs ,instead he turned out to be so frustrating he drove me mad tackled like a pansy [hope that aint sexist],and if anyone thinks that goal against palace is gonna appease me then it aint it was a toe poke from a player with no bottle ,all in all shite .0

We're all entitled to an opinion but I disagree.
He played all his football with us in the Prem and in six of the seven seasons he played we were never threatened with relegation.
Dowie etc come in and drop Kish and we get relegated. Coincidence? Possibly but it could also be us missing the phenomenal workrate (as measured by pro zone or whatever it was called) of one of the most committed players I've seen wearing the shirt in 48 years.
Even at the age of 36 he made our much vaunted midfield of Semedo and Racon look third or fourth rate at The Valley when we lost 4-0.0 -
David campbell
Paul bacon
Ralph milne ( although fergie did not think so)
Andy jones ( just for missing from 2 yards at oldham )0 -

'Keeper Derek Forster ('73/74) rarely gets a mention probab'y because people try to forget his conceding 26 goals in eleven games although he played a blinder in a pre-season game agaist Palace, I remember. He'd be my choice.0

talking about kish the other night got to say the man never hid ,and what he may have lacked in ability he made up for with work rate he always ran his nuts off unlike most players these days.0 -

Ok.
I knew the first David Campbell so wondered if you meant him!
I hope you recover soon!0 -
Didn't think Rueben Agboola was that bad. He just wasn't John Humphrey.[cite]Posted By: Pedro45[/cite]More subs (not mentioned above I think...) - Tony Hazell; Mike Kelly; Ruben Agboola... Urghhhh!
Ralph Milne and Tahar El Khalej are musts, I'd say. Can't argue with Andy Jones either, but I'd be tempted to include Kenny Achampong too.0 -
