Sadly the Club have announced that Ian Black has passed away. please log in to view this image You may remember from the Craven Cottage Story that he played for us in the the Bill Dodgin period and was a quite astounding keeper, as well as a very brave one. As the Club say in their short obituary, he was also the only Fulham keeper to have scored a goal from open play. http://www.fulhamfc.com/news/2012/december/17/ian-black-1924-2012 Here is a short video clip of him in action against our FA Cup opponents, this one however is back in 1957 and away from home. We lost 6-2 but then they did have Stanley Matthews - http://www.britishpathe.com/video/blackpool-v-fulham RIP
A great keeper,saw him play many times,up to a cpuple of years ago he was a regular member of a local bowls team. Another one of my boyhood idols gone. RIP Ian, and thanks for the memories.
