Tosh Chamberlain

Chamberlain was born in Kings Cross, London, and as a youth joined the local boys club The Mary Ward Settlement, in Bloomsbury, where he played in the London Federation of Boys Club Leagues. He was also a schoolboy international before signing for Fulham. After spending his youth career in London and Middlesex, Chamberlain signed for Fulham in 1954, encouraging his schoolboy friend Johnny Haynes to join him there. He made his debut in November that year. Two years later, after his National Service, in Chamberlain's first team game in 1954, with his first kick in the very first minute, he scored a goal against Lincoln City. Next season, he even postponed his wedding day in order to play against Newcastle United in pouring rain in the fourth round of the FA Cup. Chamberlain scored a hat trick, but Fulham lost 5–4. His last game was in a FA Cup third-round replay at Millwall on 11 January 1965.
