    1920-21 Kosher Goodman , I'm sure Paul Baker saw him play.

    Could be wrong but Mike Bailey and Ron Saunders in the 60s

    He did play that season, but wasn't top scorer. The best he did was second highest scorer in both 1922/23 and 1923/24.

    Yes Ron Saunders is the last answer for the 60s top scorer.
    Also the only top Charlton player to manager and get a club into European Cup and go onto to win it the same season.  Aston Villa he was manager for a couple of rounds.Then Tony Walters took over.   Off the top of my head.

    Good guess. He was second top scorer in 48/49, and 49/50 but never top scorer.

    George Tadman and Harold Hobbis would be in there around the 1930’s

    The other two that come to mind for the 1950s are Tommy Evans (not sure about first name) and Gordon Hurst, who I think appeared in someone's testimonial at The Valley at the age of 40-odd.

    Wow, I didn't know that. I wouldn't have got John for John Evans - I was thinking Tommy, Jimmy, Billy....

    I was born in 1953 but my father and older brother had a scrapbook of Charlton stuff, which got handed down to me as my brother wasn't particularly interested. I can remember more about the 50s, 60s and 70s than anything since!

    Great quiz, @DyerConsequences.

    I started going in the 80s, but have a decent knowledge of the 60s and 70s as everyone I went with for about the first 15 years was a generation older, so used to listen to their tales quite a lot :)

    Managed to pick up a bit of 40s and 50s stuff that they mentioned their dad's etc had told them about, but it's not until I really started getting into our history myself that I would say I really had anything above a basic knowledge of that period or before.

    I'll give it till the morning and then if no one has got the right answers I'll reveal the remaining ones then.

    Got a few ideas for more quizzes, if people are interested, but I might change it to one a week. These were 2 I had to hand, but will give me time to prepare them, and I don't want to bore everyone  :D

    Ok - he certainly had a good ratio for us 

    For those that don’t know about him - look up English Football betting scandal 1960’s - Jimmy Gauld was certainly a scoundrel - great book written many years ago by Simon Inglis called ‘Soccer in the Dock’ is worth a read - big section in the book about that scandal

    Came to this quiz too late but I had Chris Duffy ready to go with our most famous goal ever and the first person to go ape after scoring a goal in a final.

    Interesting if you go back 60 years the only mid fielders to be top scorers were Nicky Bailey, Johnnie Jackson and Lee Bowyer.

    If a cowboy rides into Charlton on Tuesday and only stays 2 nights, how can he also ride out of Charlton on Tuesday
