To think they were team mates at one point... Obviously the Labrador knew he was a prick.Rothko said:

Gilbey was rude about Stockley's Christmas gravy recipe. Revenge is sweet3

Risking a red to stamp on Alex Gilbey years later. Proper Charlton.12

Jayden just giving Gilbey a signature momento!
Much higher up the pyramid, England colleagues Rice and Rogers weren't too friendly when Declan hacked at Morgan's legs when he was bearing down on goal recently.

Whether Gilbey’s a prick or not, that’s wanky behaviour from Stockley.Rothko said:

Christ are we really retconning Stockley into a Charlton legend like we did with Pratley0
-
I always liked Stockley. He was a bit limited but our best attacking option when he was with us and I always felt he gave his all for the cause.12

Makes me so sad to see two Charlton legends from a great period in our history not getting on.20

Be fair, he also cleared a lot of corners at the near post. I remember some people saying that was justification for us to keep picking him. Dark, dark days2

Pratley grabbed that play off final after Naby’s og and dragged us back in to it18

Yes, his Charlton career could be split into before and after his back injury for assessment purposes. Pratley initially got stick then was loved. There are a lot of supporters, including of our club who do not have a good understanding of the game.fenaddick said:
Pratley genuinely was really good for us! Stockley was good for about 6 months and then injured his back and became ineffective. I won't have this Pratley slanderLeuth said:Christ are we really retconning Stockley into a Charlton legend like we did with Pratley2 -

Stockley scored 13 league goals in his best season for us, finishing at the dizzy heights of 17th in the league one top scorers table. Brannagan managed more than that from central midfield.
Jayden did score one more than Bonne managed that season though, so that's saying something.0 -
In terms of Gilbey. I wasn't a big fan although I recall him having a brilliant game for MK Dons against us before we signed him. I don't recall similar afterwards. In terms of the comment about fans, I recall Kishishev being a very important player for us and some fans not getting it. Same with Carl Leaburn before that and countless others after that. They pays their money and are entitled to their views but it doesn't mean we should respect those views.1

That's not how I remember it but fair enough. I have an annoying memory for opinions I strongly disagree with. But it's a curse I have to live with.MuttleyCAFC said:In terms of Gilbey.

You said Jayden was limited and I agree – although I would put it more strongly than that. I think some players just improve with every passing season once people stop having to watch them every week. I also think players of a certain 'type' get a much easier time than others.
He was so poor in his last season that people said he'd suffered nerve damage. I'm not sure this was ever an official explanation for his drop-off. It's either nonsense, half-true, or it's where someone invents a theory that semi makes sense and is adopted as fact.

This is exactly the hyperbolic retconning I mean. He pushed someone over.oohaahmortimer said:Pratley grabbed that play off final after Naby’s og and dragged us back in to it
What got us back into the game was a brilliant team move he played no part in. Then he got subbed off for tactical reasons.
He was a highly professional player with an imposing figure. I think these things lead people to believe he was some sort of inspirational figure instead of a player who was a decent utility replacement, who was no part of our first-choice promotion-run midfield, who couldn't dam the cracks in the Championship and who was ultimately disastrous unless played at centre-back in that miserable season to follow. But the Doncaster keeper threw one in off his foot and he pushed someone over so he's a club legend. Great guy but he'd give away possession if you breathed near him3 -

I might build up to every match this season by slagging off a random Charlton player past or present. Good for the soul4

Go watch that play off game again Leuth , he was inspirational .Be better than this dull fest3

Prime Pratley absolutely walks into our midfield and any player fan or even pet that leaves one or Gilbey is a 100% a legend in my eyes one of the biggest twats to wear the shirt

I won't dispute the bit about Gilbey. You weren't around here then but I basically led, pioneered even, the anti-Gilbey propaganda drive.
Pratley wouldn't sort out our midfield's biggest problems. He'd be a taller and less tidy version of what we already have. I'd have him in the squad ahead of Ouma, sure. We went down from a weaker Championship than this with him playing.2 -

Was good for usnfirst season, then we tried Garner ball and it clearly didnt suit Stockley (or anyone else)MuttleyCAFC said:I always liked Stockley. He was a bit limited but our best attacking option when he was with us and I always felt he gave his all for the cause.0 -

Hold your horses there Chunes✋🏼
My mate Jayden was at his best in League 2 when he scored 36 goals in 66 apps for Exeter when the wingers fed him with crosses to run on to and mainly scored with headers. A good ratio of goals to games which no one can deny(you can if you want !)
At Preston he scored a wonder goal with his feet in the Championship BUT this was the exception to the rule and Stockley did struggle to replicate the goals from Exeter and at PNE scored just 9 from 65 games over 3 seasons and then dropped to League 1 with CAFC.
Stockers had 13 in 33 games in league 1 before he got injured and if a goal every 2 1/2 games is bad then blimey O'Riley we have had some bad strikers in league 1.
My opinion of Stockley (who had no pace) was his best spell at Charlton was with Conor Washington.
His last spell under Garner was a disaster when he tried to turn him into a player who came short like Harry Kane to link the play which was way past his pay grade !
Miles can do that but then Leaburn can't score in the Championship despite leading the line so well.
Anyone who can be thrown in by Eddie Howe at 16 to play as a striker at Bournemouth and still be playing at League 1 level 16 years later and earning decent money deserves our respect as most of us never got past the Dog and duck reserves.
