Kingsley Black

Kingsley Black Date of Birth: Jun 22, 1968

Local boy Kingsley signed on for Luton Town after leaving college and following a series of brilliant displays on the left wing for the reserves he was awarded a League debut at QPR in September 1987 while still only 19.

Seven months later he starred as the Hatters lifted the Littlewoods Cup leading to a fight between Billy Bingham of Northern Ireland and Bobby Robson of England for his international services. He chose the former and eventually earned 30 caps for the country of his father.

An inevitable big money move to Nottingham Forest in 1991 was never entirely successful, leading to a drifting down through the divisions. Kingsley went on to own tanning studios in Luton.
