I was at the away game v Blackpool 27th November 1976 when Richard was in goal , we lost 3-2 . As a side note , if you watch the highlights , I'm right at the front waving my arms celebrating a goal ! RIP Richard .

I don't think I ever saw him play for us, but do remember his name appearing in the programme, glad to see you got to celebrate at Blackpool from memory we rarely seemed to win there (when I went) the only exception that springs to mind is when we won 3 2, I want to say Horsfield Pesch and Morgan scored but I probably got that wrong.

Won the 1973 FA Amateur Cup Final for Walton & Hersham.
Made his debut for Fulham in the first game of the 76/77 season (Mellor Injured???)
Played 5 league games over the season (Peyton arrived in December as Mellor's replacement)
