Mostyn6 Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 Rest in Peace Ray. Was coming to the end of his career as I was learning to love football, but was always on TV and around the England coaching setup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CornwallRam Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 Sad news. Always remember the battle between him and Shilton for the England shirt. Both great players - but I always thought Shilton was slightly better. Another part of my childhood world departs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gritstone Ram Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 He would have had a lot more England Caps if it wasn’t for Peter Shilton and vice versa. Good keeper won almost everything with Liverpool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mucker1884 Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 When you don't need to google the name. When you already know the legend, from your very own memories. When the news hits you like a kick in the guts, even though he had absolutely no affiliation to the club you support. Then you just know... 'Tis a sad day indeed. RIP, Clem. xxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cisse Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 This one really hurts. He was my first football idol as a kid. I loved him. I wanted and tried to be a great goalie which was a bit challenging as a four feet tall goalie. RIP Ray Clemence, you are always going to be the ONE as a goalkeeper.

RamNut Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 He was a great goalkeeper, there’s no doubt about that. I thought Liverpool sold him too soon. nice tribute from Peter Shilton Quote @Peter_Shilton I’m absolutely devastated to be told of the sad news that @RayClem1 has just passed away we were rivals but good friends Ray was a brilliant goalkeeper with a terrific sense of humour I will miss him a great deal as we’ve kept friends long after retiring RIP my friend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ram1964 Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 Truly World class ,and apparently a nice bloke. Continued in football long after his playing days with the FA, and coaching. One of my schoolboy heroes and as good a goal keeper as any in the modern game. Condolences to his family and friends. A true Legend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brammie Steve Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 Great keeper and great ambassador for the English game. Condolences to the family. RIP Ray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MuespachRam Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 My first goalie kit.... (I always thought he was better than Shilton to be honest....and I am sure he had better political views that’s for sure!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Van der MoodHoover Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 Very sad news - I too remember the late 70's when Ron Greenwood actually instigated a deliberate policy of alternating Clemence and Shilton for a while. Nearly 1,000 appearance too - some career. RIP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
