Nothing personal against you.
I made a comment over three years ago.
Now it's started an argument.

Says the person who cries when someone calls said person a dick. You have the nerve to say that a perfectly harmless joke was nonsense & then follow it up with your normal nonsenseaddick1956 said:

Jesus. Some people could start a fight in an empty room.
Let me spell it out for you:
It wasn’t about you.I’ve never engaged with you before. You’re just another poster.
It was a joke about the gap between comments on this thread. (Obviously)
You misread the situation and made it into a problem by being paranoid.
You got unnecessarily argumentative.
You don’t seem to know what a keyboard warrior is. I’ll give you a clue: It’s you, not me.
You escalated it and made it about you.
A bit of friendly advice: Grow a sense of humour, learn some manners, stop childish name-calling, recognise when you’re wrong and stop trolling. It’s embarrassing.
Hope that’s cleared it up.You can now choose to:
1) Reflect on your behaviour and acknowledge you were wrong.
2) Pretend this never happened and move on, or
3) You could double down and continue to be argumentative, call me a “coward” and an “idiot” to your heart’s content from the safety of your mother’s basement while remaining blissfully unaware how thick with irony that is.
Your choice! 😘x10 -
Honestly mate, you couldn't be more wrong. Lord Romford is definitely one of the good guys. Read his comments back in the daylight and you'll see he's just having a bit if innocent fun.addick1956 said:

How do you know (s)he's an idiot? That's an unjustified, cowardly attack written from afar (note, not "a far").

I'll have the £4.50 argument please.
Does that come with added pith?0 -
100% deserved tooHenry Irving said:Peter was elected to the Charlton Hall of Fame last season0 -
Peter has lived in Spain for some years, but was so pleased to be added to the Hall of Fame that he flew over specially to attend the POTY Dinner when it was officially announced. He booked a complete table and brought his family and friends. I remain in contact with him and when he next comes back to the UK (after the Summer), he is going to visit the Museum so he can see the Honours Board which now contains his name. For those too young to see him play, Peter was a very good player and still holds the record for being the youngest Charlton player to play 250 league matches. Had a knee injury not ended his career at the age of 25, he would probably have made 500+ appearances.ShootersHillGuru said:

I sat in front of his Mum and Dad a few times in the old West Stand when i was a kid.
Peter was a fantastic player and role model to any young lad.
Had Pete been at Spurs or West Ham or The Gunners he would a played for England, No question about it.

Peter was one of the first players that I remember from my first games in 1969 - I know that he was demonstrably smaller than some of the other players but he seemed quite tough enough for those days. I played cricket against him when he was playing for Metrogas when they had the ground on what is now IKEA. I’ve no idea whether he brought Rodney Marsh along with him but I wouldn’t bet against it4

Just great reading about idolising Peter Reeves as a kid and then having him turn up as his gas man. Surreal! Great player.1

I remember 2 of his brothers Johnny and Tiger played for Penhill Standard, a great little team managed by World Soccer journalist Eric Batty. He was a great friend of Ron Greenwood then West Ham manager, both were years ahead in coaching of others .Penhill had some really good players who could have been pros, I think they had John Stenson who went to West Ham.I always wonder why Andy Townsend was never signed by Charlton when he was at Welling, also with Don his dad's connection.1

I'm sure I remember him making his debut for Charlton in the 3-3 classic with QPR, back in February 1968.
QPR were top of the table, the Morgan twins on either wing and Rodney Marsh pulling the strings in midfield ......"Rodney is a fairy", chanted the Covered End. It was a classic Charlton comeback with only 10 men for much of the 2nd half, a "Grandstand finish" as we called in in those days, with late, late goals from Paul Went and Keithy Peacock to earn us a last gasp point.
Was that the day of Peter Reeves wedding, I think? Can you imagine a pro footballer today getting married on a Saturday during the season!
Charlie Wright was best man and we had another 18 year old making his debut in goal. He ended up in hospital.
Bob Curtis scored a penalty for us before limping off, as he needed to get to the wedding ceremony for a drink.
Or so the story goes.

Did Peter & Charlie really miss a game for Peters wedding ? Have to say I don't remember that although it was 50+ years ago so anything is possible
It wasn't unusual in those days though for players to get married in the morning & play in the afternoon.0 -
Just to add a bit more. I think Brian Kinsey had to go in goal. Did we have a gk called Willis who had to go off injured?0

I remember playing in some summer 5 a side tournament & Peter Reeves was refereeing our game (Guess he was doing a favour for someone ?). He was still playing for Charlton so I couldn't believe he was our ref, as a youngster it's the last thing you expect so I was delighted/excited for some daft reason. Then I made a tackle & he blew up for a foul & told me why (could have been studs up ?) & all of a sudden I wasn't so star struck haha. Didn't last for long thoughthewolfboy said:Just great reading about idolising Peter Reeves as a kid and then having him turn up as his gas man. Surreal! Great player. 0 -
John Stenson……sadly he never lived up to all the hype he received as a youngster.charltonbob said:
