Big William said:Probably still my favourite ever player, by a short head from Kinsella, Killer and a few others. Although he was a classic right winger, his most famous assist, for Killers goal of the season, was with his left foot. Accurate to the millimeter as usual.When I had to make my Confirmation and choose a name, I asked for Colin. Was told there wasn’t a saint called Colin, so that wasn’t allowed. They obviously never went to The Valley 😉. I chose Patrick, not for my Irish heritage, but because Colin was always known as Paddy ☘️8

I had similar "looks" from the Vicar when I had my eldest christened. He thought "Killer"and "Flash" were wholly inappropriate middle names for my daughter!6 -

His playing days were before my time but whenever I’ve been around him he’s always seemed such a gentleman.Hope the new era of the club start treating our loyal ex players better. Colin should be Number One in that regard9

Loved watching ‘paddy’ tearing down the wings, brilliant player. Him, Killer and Flash my all time Charlton favourites.4

Lovely bloke. Loved sitting in the stands eating my lunch watching him on the sit-on lawn mower driving up and down the valley pitch with a fag hanging out his mouth.3
