P*lace once lost 9-0 at Anfield (September '89 if I recall correctly) and 8 different Liverpool players got on the scoresheet. In goal for P*lace that evening was Perry Suckling. We still sing about it (not often enough if you ask me.)

remember a cup game where there were loads of the yoof singing 'Perry Sutcliffe'
Really? Then we clearly don't sing it enough. I'd also like to bring back the old Suzanne Vega number, Tom's Diner. "We are Charlton from The Valley" on loop. But that's probably for another thread.
I couldn't fit my BBC606 name on here (I say Semedo, you say Semado, let's call the whole thing off), so in a panic chose this name. Can't think of any real reason I chose it though.
HandG stands for Horse and Groom, the (very much closed down) pub I used to frequent on match days-chose the name when I posted on NA and kept it on Charlton Life. Don't know why because I never even liked the place.

I loved that pub. Wish it was still there.
I can be found in The Swan in the village on match days now.

Was a regular in the H and G 92-99. Had many a giggle in there.
Started supporting Charlton in the Selhurst days. John Humphrey quickly became my favourite player. To me he was solid, industrious, did his job well and as quick as a whippet. How Mel Sterland made the England squad ahead of him is beyond me. Also reminds me of a time when we really were in the shit but pulled ourselves out of it because of players like Humphrey.
I lived in Oliver Street (off Maxey Road, Plumstead) until 1968. A 2-up-2-down terraced house with an outside loo in a street where everyone knew each other. The old Victorian neighbourhood was flattened and 'redeveloped'
Sir Alan Curbishley, shortened after watching The Apprentice a while back when Alan Sugar was called " Sralan" although don't know why as he was never a Sir. Confused??? Me too.
Mine is a nod to the Steven Gerrard song "there's only one Stevie G" that the scousers sing as my first name is Steve and surname initial is G. And that's where the similarity ends!
My name is taken from an instrumental track from the second best band of all time, The Smiths.
In turn Morrissey named the track to highlight a practice and specifically a certain piece of equipment used in a standardised toxicity test predominantly for the cosmetics industry where rabbits are used. The test itself was devised by a bloke named John H Draize back in the 1940's and became known as `The Draize Test'. A number of rabbits would be securely fastened into one specific piece of equipment that would act similar to a conveyer belt allowing the toxicologist to perform multiple experiments in one sitting. Simply pressing a button and the next unfortune bunny would appear in front of him/her. The main bulk of these experiments involve chemical testing on the rabbits eyes.....and the conveyer belt like contraption is known as `The Draize Train'.
