FORMER title-winning Liverpool FC full back Ray Lambert has died at the age of 87.

Flintshire-born Lambert played 341 games for the Reds between 1946 and 1955, playing an integral role in the side that won the inaugural post-war championship in 1946-47.

He also won five international caps for Wales, moving back to his native land at the end of his playing career where he worked as a newsagent.

Lambert's death comes just a week after another member of that legendary 1946/47 team, Stan Palk, who scored 14 goals in 75 appearances between 1940-48, making six appearances alongside the likes of Billy Liddell and Bob Paisley in that historic first post-war campaign.
A Pround Citizen of Kingdom Of Liverpool, Hail King Kenny, Long Live The King.

I can remember going to his shop in Garden City in Deeside with my mum when I was about 4 in the mid-1970s.  I can remember being impressed when my mum told him he used to play for Liverpool.

RIP Mr. Lambert

It's true to say that if Shankly had told us to invade Poland we'd be queuing up 10 deep all the way from Anfield to the Pier Head.

Don't want to sound ignorant but I've never heard of him before. That's what makes this site great though. You get to learn about heroes of old. *Searches on wiki*

Rest In Peace Ray

those were the days, where money meant little to them, just pride & passion to be playing for the red shirt.

RIP Ray, YNWA
And when you find yourself along the untrodden path
Remember me with a smile, a drink, a gesture or a laugh
And a toast for the man who loves every hour of every day
And a feast for the friends and faces met along way
Gratitude
