Ralph Calland

Ralph Calland

Ralph Calland (July 5, 1916 - 2005) was an English professional footballer, playing at full-back. He was born in Lanchester, County Durham.

Ralph 'Scrumpy' Calland began his career at Charlton Athletic who he joined in May 1937. He spent 2 seasons with Charlton, failing to make a league appearance. In May 1939 he moved to Torquay United, but the second world war intervened, and Calland had to wait until 1946 for his league debut.

Over the next 8 seasons Calland saw many changes at Plainmoor, including his brothers Ted and Albert arriving. He finally left Plainmoor after making 207 league appearances, in which he scored 14 times.

In January 2000, aged 83, Calland was back at Plainmoor for the match with Carlisle United as a guest of the match day sponsor Helen Chamberlain.
