Here's a picture of a referee from a Fulham game from August
1977 - opponents unknown. Although the image is very clear it's
not someone I recognise. [attachimg=1]

Ray Toseland or Ron Bridges?

Looks a bit like Darryl Reeves (Uxbridge) to me...…….but then he
wouldn't have got a Fulham game in those days unless perhaps it
was a friendly.

It's not at all how I remember Ray Toseland ( who was a very
regular visitor to Portman Road, does anyone else remember his
rather languid/floppy run? ) but then my memory plays awful
tricks these days. My first thought was Darryl Reeves but it is
surely right that he wouldn't have been appointed to a
competitive Fulham match unless, perhaps, it was a London derby.

Of course, being in August it might have been a pre-season
friendly match

It definitely ISN'T Ron Bridges.

Darryl Reeves seems the likeliest suggestion so far - he did
seem to have a slightly bigger build than this referee but there
is certainly some similarity and the referee does quite young
with quite full hair. A possible clincher is the "unzipped" cut
of his shirt which bears clear similarity with this picture of
him from around a year earlier:
As regards a Fulham appointment the game seems likeliest to have
been against Orient or perhaps Chelsea which would have made him
a potential appointment.

I am apparently not authorised to see attachments although I
can't think why not. I am over 18. Can anyone help please?

I managed to see the attachments this morning but now also have
a note saying I am not allowed to see attachments. A gremlin in
the site perhaps. It is going to take a bit of time to iron out
a few wrinkles but I am grateful for all that is being done to
keep RTR going.
