    RIP to King Charley , I met him once or twice and as you say he was a real gentleman, and unbelievably modest considering his stature , a truly legendary figure.

    RIP to a true safc legend.

    I wasn't fortunate to see him play but he is my dad's hero and he waxes lyrical about the King.

    A sad day

    Never saw him play and not met him but fully aware of his legacy and aura. Sad loss for the club and community. Hope the club can provide a fitting tribute. RIP club legend.
