Players That Passed You By

Thinking back to the Pardont era, there were too many to remember, Tom Soares, Cook and Scott Sinclair, just for starters.

Kenneth Wegner (he was going to be our first foreign signing since Simonsen....)

Perry Digweed

Vince Hilaire

Steve Barbe

Marcel Seip

Not one appearance between the lot.

And then there's a few one hit wonders;

Ian Ferguson

Karim Bagheri

Tony Caig

Mike Small

Reuben Agboola (I think)

Jim Stannard

Martin Duffield (but it was on Match of The Day!)

Omar Pouso!

Most of you on here were probably too young to remember the first of these two but Oggy Red and Len Glover might;

• Steve Stacey just the One game on loan from Ipswich 1969 had an absolute mare so much so I still remember it so vividly that he would have made Francis look good!
  
• Geoff Scott from Birmingham? 1982/83 played just two games for us injury prone.
  

Thats the irony of it Lawrie Abrahams I wish I could forget Steve Stacey's one and only performance!

It's all in the name! Michael Stewart is quite forgetable whereas no-one is likely to forget Pouso or Bagheri for example as they stand out.

Ifejiagwa and Cobian always stick in my mind too

Steve Stacey scored though!

Agreed with Lawrie Abrahams, the point of this thread is surely players who you literally had forgotten played for us, not those that were so forgettable they became unforgettable, e.g. the likes of Pouso, Bagheri and even Tom Hovi in the 90s whos brief appearances have become infamous.

One that springs to mind for me is Keith / Kevin Scott? I was chatting with my brother about a year or so ago and for some reason he brought him up, a centre half who we had on loan in the mid-90s, think it might have been from spurs or norwich or something. I had / have no recollection of him being with us or the games he played for us - I vaguely remember him as a player but not for us!

An old one, but whenever anyone mentions that John Barnes used to play for us, I always think 'WTF, did he?!'

I just can't remember seeing him in a Charlton shirt, which is weird as he is such a big name.

If you just stared at the centre circle when he was on you couldn't miss him.

This thread has just made me think how many different players have played for the club since relegation from the prem, I make it 111 different players featuring in that time

Clive something?

He got injured straight away, didn't play a game

Tommy Taylor

Most of the last three seasons passed me by, or at least I wish they had.
