Paul Canoville, Legendary UK Footballer, played for Chelsea FC

In 1981, Canovelle became the first black footballer ever to play for Chelsea FC. He slept in his car early in his career and suffered racial abuse from the fans of Chelsea during his career. This is a snippet from his interview for the "The Clyde Best Story".
"As I'm stretching and running, I hear loud individual voices through the noise: 'Sit down you black c..t!, 'You f..n wog - f off!' Over and over again. Lots of different people. I hardly dared look around. They were right behind me. I snatched a glimpse. They were all wearing blue shirts and scarves - Chelsea fans, my side's fans, faces screwed with pure hatred and anger, all directed at me... I felt physically sick. I was absolutely terrified."
