    Maybe even a mention for Chris Perry, Shaun Bartlett and Graham Stuart?

    All unsung heroes enabling Charlton to maintain their Prem league status.

    You beat me to it Oggy!

    I was going to mention Bartlett and Stuart as nobody else had....

    I liked both Stuart and Bartlett, but no way would they make it in above AFKA's 4.

    Has Luke Young had a mention?

    England international, skipper and all that.

    Apologies if he has and I missed it.

    Re Off_it's comment: It is hard to pick 4. Darrent Bent and Chris Powell are probably unanimous but then it is more arguable.

  • 1. D. Bent
    2. Young
    3. Powell
    4. Jensen

    Andy Hunt?

     I know most of his goals came in the Champs', but if we hadn't signed him we may never of had that long Prem' run in the first place.

    Hunt wasnt a premiership signing though - he was a championship signing.

    I'm sure Hunt was a premiership signing after we won play offs. Got about six goals in our first prem season

    I think AFKA is right. In my mind I wondered if we had signed him during the season after the window had closed - like we did with the Herminator?

    Correct, he joined on a free transfer/Bosman thingy from West Brom in 1998 after we were promoted.

    He had the clear run on goal at Anfield after being put through by Robinson, only for the referee to stop play for a late foul on Robinson.

  • ...he missed though didnt he?

    hunt was a prem signing after west brom turned down our advances the previous year so we told hunt to let his contract run down and he'd get a bigger signing on fee and west brom would recieve zilch.

    No, the referee, who was watching the Robinson incident and not the ball stopped play just as he was rounding David James. I doubt he would have missed.

    Well he took it round the keeper and didn't bother putting it into the empty net as the whistle had already been blown. It was very much missing on purpose.

    I think it went wide actually - could be wrong though.

    I'm surprised Hreidarsson didn't get a mention. El Karkouri was also a hell of a defender

    *Dons tin hat*

    £1,350,000 for 7 Premiership seasons = decent value in footballing terms.

    Radostin Kishishev.

    However difficult to know who to remove. Di Canio or Jensen probably. Bent D has to be in as does Chris Powell.


    Oh how I laughed. Wrong thread Len, Jokes are on page 2    :-)

    I would have to take out Di Canio, being a one  season wonder, and replace him with Graham Stuart.

    much undervalued player  and if you watch some of the dvd highlights of the good seasons (2000-2004) he was very pivotal & actually set up a lot of goals.

    my top 5 would be:

    Bent

    Powell

    Jenson

    Stuart

    Murphy

    You can't possibly leave out Jason Euall. The man was a legend until Curbs put him in midfield. I still have his autograph after his MOM performance in the victory against Chelsea March 2002.

    Euall

    Jensen

    Herreiderson

    Stuart

    Bent was a fantastic signing but ultimately didn't do us much good and Di Caneo was no more than an enjoyable cameo. Murphy was 2 stone overweight for most of his time at the Valley.

  • 1 Parker
    2 Bent
    3 Costa
    4 Powell

    Criminal that the three Didn't play more for England.

    Parker wasn't a prem signing HG

    Think you've called it right for me @AFKABartram, great read.
  • Di Canio (greatest player to wear the shirt in my life)

    John Barnes (miles past his prime but a childhood legend and great to see him in a charlton shirt)

    Darren Bent

    Claus Jensen

    I thought about him but only first four. I would have Euell fifth and Herm sixth
