History
Casper Rose (born 1 January 1983) was the glamour in the dressing room, the second biggest star around which the other players revolve - the uniting force that binds them together under Henry Leslie's tutelage. Having an ex-footballer father and a wealthy mother meant Cass never wanted for anything as a young boy. Fast-tracked into the Charlton youth team with the influence of his father, Cass' passion for football came alive when he met Eugene Christie. Where he was played at a young age by Conor Maynard. They immediately discovered that they were the perfect on-pitch partners, devastating defences from the ages of ten to sixteen. They signed pro terms together, and were the best of friends.
In his first full season as a Charlton first team member, he and Eugene steered the Addicks to the Premiership by winning the First Division.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“Whenever we read the obscene stories, the voluptuous debaucheries, the cruel and torturous executions, the unrelenting vindictiveness, with which more than half the Bible is filled, it would be more consistent that we called it the word of a demon than the Word of God. It is a history of wickedness that has served to corrupt and brutalize mankind.”
—Thomas Paine (1737–1809)
“I am ashamed to see what a shallow village tale our so-called History is. How many times must we say Rome, and Paris, and Constantinople! What does Rome know of rat and lizard? What are Olympiads and Consulates to these neighboring systems of being? Nay, what food or experience or succor have they for the Esquimaux seal-hunter, or the Kanaka in his canoe, for the fisherman, the stevedore, the porter?”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“History ... is, indeed, little more than the register of the crimes, follies, and misfortunes of mankind.
But what experience and history teach is this—that peoples and governments have never learned anything from history, or acted on principles deduced from it.”
—Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)
