The great Lennie Lawrence spent 90 minutes visiting the Museum today. Great to see him and to remember his time at Charlton. He told us that of all the players he signed through his long managerial career three of the top five were at Charlton. Names please43

Kernaghan? He didnt sign him for Boro, he was already a Boro player on loan to us (in exchange for Colin Walsh). Always remember Walsh playing against us for Boro at Selhurst - seemed so wrong.golfaddick said:

I was fortunate to be in the museum today and met Lennie. He spent a couple of hours with us and particularly enjoyed watching the centenary DVD.
One thing he spoke about was the very important part Jimmy Hill played in that promotion season when we left The Valley. His football knowledge was a great help to the club. He was disappointed that in Jimmy Hill's book there was not one mention of his time at Charlton.
Killer Hales , he had to be managed but he found a way. Talked about the Bolton match , last game of the season. How important it was to stay up that season. We won 4-1 sending Bolton down.
He also talked about Derek Ufton and what a lovely guy he was.
Leaving the Valley , he was told the night before the Palace game , where we were handed the leaflet. He told the players before the match.8 -
Did you manage to tap him up for any particularly niche memorabilia?

He gave us dozens of VHS video tapes of the matches that were recorded for his use as manager, rather than for commercial sale. Once we get them converted to DVD, we will have an enormous archive of games from the eighties.29

Lennie saved us from folding, especially through the Shithurst Park era.7
