Why did Chelsea refuse Paul Canoville's book signing in 2008?
Paul Canoville was the first black player to play for Chelsea Football Club back in 1982, and while that doesn't sound like it was that long ago, English football was different world back then.Despite suffering racial abuse from his own "supporters" in the terraces, he would go on to make over 100 appearances for the club, scoring 15 goals and helping Chelsea achieve promotion to the top flight in 1984.His remarkable story, living, working, fighting through such adversity on the pitch and overcoming various other personal and medical issues off of it, including a drug habit and beating cancer multiple times, are all detailed in his excellent autobiography Black And Blue, which should be required reading for all Chelsea fans.
