I was thinking on the train here who was the last player we had that could get you off your seat when they got the ball.
I can’t think of too many in our current squad (maybe Archibald) who would fit into this bracket, so I’d say Smyth was the last one we had?
Since supporting the O’s from the mid seventies I’ve complied the list below, it’s no surprise they tend to be attacking players
Please feel free to add any I’ve missed out, I’m sure there must be more!
Laurie Cunningham, John Cheidozie, Ricky Otto, Alan Comfort, Ian Bogie, Peter Kitchen, Stan Bowles, Paul Smyth, Paul-Jose Mpoku, Moses Odubajo (honourable mentions to Jabo Ibhere, Mark McNeil, Lee Harvey, Kevin Godfrey, Chris Bart Williams)

Jabo. If only to avoid the ball hitting me in the stands after he kicked it.
And David Mooney, if only for the exits and then onto the boozer.

When Kelman had the near miss yesterday all I saw was the backs of those standing and awaited the goal roar,but it never came sadly. |

I think we do not have any right now (though we have many talented players).
The last was Paul Smyth.
The ones I can remember are Alan Comfort, Ricky Otto, Lee Harvey, Ian Bogie, Sean Thornton, Mpoku, Josh Koroma
And sometimes these did it for me: Kenny Achampong, Greg Berry, Jabo, Dean Cox
I started in 1986 and we have not had many.

Shane Tudor used to do a fair bit I wanted to add him to my original post but I couldn’t remember his name! Agreed, he should be included in the list. |
