A fascinating piece. I saw Derek make most of his appearances for QPR. A real trailblazer and an underrated goalkeeper.

So glad to see that the historical record has now been corrected.

Thanks, Andrew – that was most interesting.

I love finding out these snippets of information about players long before my time of supporting The Blades; and surviving all that racial abuse with his sense of humour still intact is quite a feat for Derek Richardson.

Sue.

PS. I’m glad history has been righted, too!
