Rip Jackie Charlton

RIP jack, such a shame none of the north east sides had him or his brother in their careers as a footballer.

 

I liked him. RIP big man.

 

Grow up clown!

 

Grow up?? I write a thread in memory of a former England legend thats died and you come on and speak shyte about him?
Feck off and die you stupid disrespectful auld kunt. When you die nobody will bat an eye lid i bet

 

I repeat "Grow up clown"

Given that you, probably, never saw him play or watched any of the teams he managed I think I'm far more entitled to pass comment on those parts of his life than you are.

Clown!!

 

Im 42 you stupid tw@t i never saw him play live but i knew of him well enough to write this thread in respect for him.
It goes to show how much of a kunt you are when you come on a thread like this and talk negative about someone thats just died. I bet you wish you could have achieved 10% of what he did in your sad life

 

I remember a family day in Seahouses about 15 years ago when I heard that Northumbrian accent coming up the road behind us and I immediately knew who it was. I told my son, also called Jack who was about 10 at the time, that the bloke coming past us won the world cup and his eyes were like saucers with 20 questions to follow.
Nice memories, RIP Jack.

 

My Grandad was a centre half in Charlton's mould, or Jackie was made from my Grandad's mould.

He won a championship medal in the South Tyneside Senior League (I've still got it) and he reminded me more than once that sometimes the ball got past him . . . . but the man never did

Sometimes you need players like them, who are just as valuable as the likes of Geoff Hurst who got the glory, and they deserve equal respect

 

Said himself when asked the difference between him and their Bobby. He said Bobby could play and was a creative player. He said he couldn't play and his job was to stop creative players like their Bobby and luckily for himself there is a demand for both sorts of players in the game. Was no dirtier than say Ron Harris or Norman Hunter.

I wish someone would tell Tom Flanagan that

 

If you are 42 you should act like it.

Grow up you immature clown.

 

I never had a problem with 'hard' players (Smith, Harris, McNab etc) unlike the dirty cowards (Collins, Giles etc).

What used to bug me about Charlton was the way he'd push the laws as much as he could (****housery). One example would be the way he blocked goalkeepers at corners - there was no need for it. It was obstruction, clear as day, but he was allowed to get away with it!
