    @CAFCofficial: The club is saddened to hear of the passing of former striker Ray Treacy, at the age of 68. #RIPRay #cafc http://t.co/u5fxcQ7tEF

    He was one of my favourite players in my favourite Charlton team.

    RIP Ray, you gave this teenager a lot of joy.

    There are traces there of the first ever Charlton team I saw, but I've got to be honest, Ray Treacy was just before my time. Still very sad news though as there will be a lot of fans who remember him.
    RIP Ray.

    I totally endorse all your sentiments. What years were those, 1966-67? My memory is shot these days. No real defender in that midfield four which made things entertaining at both ends.

    Brian Clough thought highly of Ray. (Never signed him though).

    I think when we finished one outside the promotion places it was 1968.

    Yes, 68-69. Palace came second and got promoted.

    Oh dear how sad. The player I remember the most from my earliest days at The Valley, and so one of favourites ever. I hope he had a good life after football.
