Former Fulham star Barry Lloyd has died at the age of 75.

The English midfielder made more than 289 appearances for Fulham.

He enjoyed success for the Cottagers, scoring 29 goals in eight years, with three of them as captain.

Lloyd skippered the Cottagers to promotion from Division Three in 1971, scoring in the win at Bradford City that confirmed the club were going up.

Lloyd also managed Brighton between 1987 and 1993.

He took the Seagulls to promotion from the third tier and a shock appearance in the second tier play-off final during his tenure.

He is also credited with planting the seeds of a youth policy which would begin to bear fruit during his reign.

Fulham FC statement
The Club is saddened to learn of the death of former captain Barry Lloyd.

The West London-born midfielder joined Fulham from Chelsea in December 1968 and went on to make 286 appearances for the Whites, earning promotion to the Second Division in the 1970/71 season.

He will also be remembered by Fulham fans as part of the squad who reached the 1975 FA Cup Final, where he was named as a substitute.

After spending the rest of his playing career at Hereford, Brentford and Houston Hurricane, he enjoyed managerial stints with Yeovil, Worthing and Brighton.

Lloyd is also a Forever Fulham recipient, having been inducted in March 2022.

Everyone at the Club would like to offer our condolences to Barry's family and friends at this sad time.
