Whites v Black 06:35 - Nov 29 with 371 viewsbwildered

While watching the whites v blacks programme by Adrain Child's on Sunday 27th , two questions came to mind .
Who was the second black to play for the U's after the brilliant Trevor Lee, and who was the first to play at Layer Rd for the opposition ?

Poll: No half measure either 1 or 2 ?

Not sure at all about the 2nd part, but I'm going to guess the equally brilliant Steve Dowman for part one?

I can't be sure, but there's a good chance that Charlie Williams, later a stand-up comedian, was the first black player to play against the U's. Charlie played for Doncaster Rovers, and hung up his boots in 1959.

Donny Rovers hovered between the old Second Division and Third Division North, but we did play against them in the first season (1958-59) of the new Third Division.

Did you notice ex CUFC player Winston White was the number 11 for the black team?
