Whether good or bad ability wise, who do you think has ever 'worn the shirt' with the most pride and passion throughout charlton history?

Would probably come into a few things:

1. Whether they support the club firstly as a fan.
2. Their role in the team, e.g. Captain.
3. Relationship with fans.
4. Appreciation of our history and what we stand for.
5. Work rate on the pitch.

A few names in recent history.

Dean Kiely, Chris solly, Jonnie Jackson, John Robinson, Chris Powell, Richard Rufus

Any others to add?

    If Solly & Jackson are in there from last season surely Yann has got to be as well. The guy looks as if he prepared to lose body parts in an attempt to score for us, that is passion

    Maybe not an obvious choice but i'd say Thomas Myhre, always tried to get the covered end to make noise and used to go mental when we scored, was gutted when he left

    Been mentioned already of course but Keefy Peacock springs immediately to mind, Brian Kinsey, Bob Bolder and going even further back let's not forget dear old Stuart Leary, Eddie Firmani and Derek Ufton.
    More recently you can add Eddie Youds, Harry Gregory and in his own funny way, Killer!

    Good call. See, when Dowie joined, I had no idea we had a goalkeeping crisis, what with us having excellent keepers in Myhre and Andersson. So he brings in Carson on loan, knowing all along that he'd go back to Liverpool at the end of the season, and puts him straight in the team, thereby immediately alienating Mhrye and Andersson. They both ultimately thought, 'Sod this,' and left the club. Then, before you know it, we're signing Nicky bloody Weaver...
