I always said I would never have a player's name on the back of my shirt unless it was the same as mine. So I was delighted when he signed, and I happened to be 37 at the time (his squad number) so it was obviously meant to be. When I went to the club shop and asked for the name on the back, the assistant said "You do know he's only on loan don't you?". Then I showed him my credit card and got an approving nod.
Always thought he could have been converted to a centre half.
Apparently he used to be. An SA bloke I worked with was mates with Shaun as a youngster. He told me that he played centre half but one day had to play up front. Scored a hat trick and never looked back

Shame we didn’t try as we might have got a couple of extra years out him.
Best Charlton goal I ever saw at the Valley... bloody Robin Van Persie making me have to caveat 'Charlton goals only'
Should have had a straight red foe a horrible tackle earlier in the game. Should have also been booked for his celebration when jumping into the arsenal fans. I left the valley that day feeling totally cheated.

And he shinned the volley. Not a patch on Bartlett’s goal...

Just under 2 hours left, dont let Gerrard beat him
Gerrard still ahead 52%/48%
It cost him a red card and us a penalty. But yeah, brilliant full length diving save!
