    Lisbie was supposed to but he got off pleading that gaols scare him too much.

    His spelling was never that good apparently.

    Peter Storey - smuggling porn inside a tyre

    Mickey Thomas with the fake bank notes

    The Turkish guy they let out of prison to kick the Charlton players during the tour of Turkey in the 50s. Jock Campbell booted him up into the stand first chance he had and that was that.

    Carl Leaburn - Selling cup final tickets to a tout. Not sure if he went inside or just got a 10 year ban :- )

    Jan Molby did time for DD while he was at Liverpool.

    Hilariously, he came out of prison slimmer than when he was a full-time first team player!!!

    Tony was Bar Steward at the Grindlays Bank Sports Ground on the Cator Estate in the late 80's and also served behind the bar at The Railway Tavern (Blackheath) when it was a pub around the same time.. Well dodgy!
