    Arthur Horsfield at the Valley today, watching his grandson. One of my hero's.
    Why's his grandson one of your heroes Kap? 🤔

    What a player. Strong, great in the air, the perfect partner for Alfie. If only we could turn back the clock.

    Old fashion center forward who played 156 consecutive games for Charlton. Always powerful in the air and a good foil for the other striker. Partnered Flanagan and Hales . Ended up playing center half under Andy Nelson. 
    Last spoke with him down at a post office sorting center and signed a package I picked up.Don’t make them like King Arthur anymore. Cheers for the memories Arthur.

    ...and the waistline...😉

    Just a little jest...Arfur was a real favourite, and a really committed player, how we could do with another Arfur Horsfield at the club now.

    Boy, I have some good memories of him. King Arthur - he was dynamite in the 72/73 season.

    The wonder of it is when he couldn’t be so prolific up front, he simply moved back to centre half and had a season stopping other forwards from being prolific.
    An amazingly successful positional switch, like if Aneke’s future is as a goalkeeper!

    Bumped into Arthur last year at Lingfield races - what a lovely bloke - he seemed surprised that I recognised him but who could forget - he was a bloody good player - said he never wanted to leave Charlton

    Does his grandson play for us?

    Pretty much the perfect hold up striker.
