His first game for us was coming on as sub against Swansea at The Valley in a res game
Crowd was 2500 for that match which Charlton won 4-0. Simonsen laid on goal for Walker if I remember.
His name was listed as playing in the Chelsea away match afew weeks early, that was the game Geoff Scott was injured in.0 -

Mad that 4000 turned up to a reserve game.0

The only player I have ever seen for us who was so clearly above and beyond all his teammates.By that not just the best player on the pitch but someone who is playing to a different standard again.4

---------------------------------
He was Balloon d'Dor winner in 1977. For context, the year before it was Franz Beckenbauer, 2 years before that, Johan Cruyff.
He scored the winning goal in the European Cup Winners Cup final in 1982, just months before joining The Addicks.
When Diego Maradona joined Barca at the start of the 82/83 season, due to only 2 foreign players allowed to play in any game at that time, he would have been on the bench or trying to oust Maradona from the squad, so requested a transfer. He turned down offers to join Real Madrid & Tottenham to sign for The Addicks for £300k as he wanted a club with less stress and attention.
He left on a free at the beginning of 1983 due to unpaid wages, joining his boyhood Danish club, Vejle BK. Despite these moves, at the end of that year, he still came 3rd in the Ballon d'Or, behind Michel Platini & Kenny Dalgleish.
---------------------------------
How privileged we were to see him turn out in red, even if it was for just 16 games.

That Hagar cartoon is a bit dated, girls CAN be vikings.1

Strange that I have no recollection of all that happening and I was a paper boy at the time & would always read the back pages when walking up the paths to the front doors.0
