Our one time loanee (2009) .. I'm sure that we all will wish him the very best in his battle against this pernicious disease

Good luck Carl.
Stay positive would be my advice.

Talal · July 2017

That is just awful. Obviously hope he beats it.

Carter · July 2017

He did really well for us, I hope he is on the mend soon

cabbles · July 2017

Good luck Carl - best wishes

CL is always reliable for this kind of stuff. Saw Nathan Byrne sent him a tweet with well wishes and was wondering what happened.

Absolutely fucking awful thing. He's long had the reputation of being one of the nice guys in football. Goes without saying all my love and thoughts with him

Sad to read this. Hope he beats it. Wish him well.

Good luck Carl.

Let's all hope he wins the biggest battle of his life.

Hopefully he is in touch with Stilian Petrov, who had leukemia and recovered ( at least that was what I read a while ago)

He did. And he's another one who is rumored to be one of the nicest men in the game. Cancer really is a mother fucker.

Really sad to hear this. Wasn't at the club for the longest time but have fond memories of him and hope he recovers.

Johnnysummers5 · July 2017

Good luck Carl, very best wishes

Desperately sad news, I hope he makes a full recovery

My prayers are with you Carl.
My abiding memory is when you played in goal at Yeovil for Charlton. Never been so soaked by the wind and rain standing in the away end. You took a goal kick and it went out for a corner. Stay strong sir.

LenGlover · July 2017

Hopefully caught early as part of regular medicals..

Get well soon Carl.

cafcdave123 · July 2017

Absolute bastard of a disease, wish him, along with all other sufferers, all the best.

mid_life_crisis · July 2017

Good luck to you Carl.
I'm sure the whole football community will be behind you.

Six-a-bag-of-nuts · July 2017

Good luck Carl.

Horrible news - hope he beats it.

cafcfan · July 2017

That's a bastard. On the plus side the pre-season tests may have prompted a very early diagnosis.

bobmunro · July 2017

I'm assuming Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia - the same as my Danny. The treatments are effective and there is hope.

I wish Carl the very best - never give up.
