Who was Town's first black player? on 22:13 - Jun 1 by manchego | That would be Marty Feldman. I remember Johnny Miller. He was pretty good and I think I remember people talking about him possibly becoming England's first black player. He wasn't of course. I don't remember Steve Stacey at all. |
Indeed, that was the reference. Stacey lives in Australia now, I believe. Johnny Miller, who made his first-team debut only a matter of months after Stacey I think, was the player Bobby Ferguson originally tried out in the 'Eric Gates' role behind the front two in Town's reserves. | | | |
