Playing career
Black played for Blackburn Rovers, before joining Burslem Port Vale in October 1895.[1] On 19 October, he made his debut in a heavy 8–2 defeat to Darwen.[1] He scored his first goal for the club two days later, in a 5–4 victory over Liverpool at the Athletic Ground.[1] However, after seven Second Division and two FA Cup appearances the club declared him to be "a stone too heavy" and so he left by mutual consent in January 1896 and headed for Scotland.[1]

gollark: If you ignore fiddly stuff like actually being tested, having any UI, handling moderator blocks, handling cell efficiencies above 100% and tin coolers (evil things), my simulator might work.
gollark: Ah, cool.
gollark: What is that sword?
gollark: I hope that, should I bother to actually get this anywhere near finished, my reactor autooptimizer, will come up with such ridiculous designs.
gollark: Well, as someone without ways to obtain redstone other than witches and automining, not really, but cool nevertheless.
