Ramon Wilson, MBE (17 December 1934 – 15 May 2018) was an English footballer who played at left back. He was a member of the England team that won the 1966 World Cup. He was born in Shirebrook, Derbyshire.[1]

Club career[edit]
Huddersfield Town[edit]
Wilson became an apprentice railwayman upon leaving school, but was spotted by a scout playing amateur football at Huddersfield Town. He began a combination of working on the tracks by night and training with Huddersfield by day, before being called up for national service.
Quickly singled out as a strong and nippy left back, with good overlapping skills, by the then-Huddersfield Town manager Bill Shankly, Wilson signed professional forms with the club in 1952 after his two-year army posting,[1] and made his debut against Manchester United in October 1955.[2] Two years later, Wilson was Huddersfield's established, first-choice, left back.[citation needed]
Everton[edit]
In 1964, Wilson joined Everton,[2] by which time he had already played 30 times for England, and he remains Huddersfield's most-capped England international. However, a torn thigh muscle sustained in training meant that he missed most of his first season at Everton. He went on to win the FA Cup with Everton in 1966. Two years later, he was on the losing side, as Everton were beaten by West Bromwich Albion in the 1968 FA Cup Final. Wilson's fortunes declined at Everton following another injury, and he was granted a free transfer in 1969, missing out on Everton's First Division title in 1970.
Later career[edit]
Wilson moved to Oldham Athletic on a free in 1969. In 1970 he moved again to Bradford City.[2] He served as caretaker manager at Bradford from September to November 1971 after the departure of Jimmy Wheeler. He took command for ten games before being succeeded by Bryan Edwards.[3]
International career[edit]
In April 1960, Wilson won his first cap for England in a 1–1 draw with Scotland.[1] Over the next 12 months, he became a fixture in the side. The FA selection committee put him in the squad for the 1962 World Cup in Chile, and Wilson played in all three group games and England's elimination in the quarter finals at the hands of Brazil.[1]
After the World Cup, Wilson kept his England place under new manager Alf Ramsey. With Ramsey successfully snatching sole responsibility for picking the team from the FA came a firm feeling that Wilson was Ramsey's highest-rated left back. Others, such as Liverpool's Gerry Byrne, were given the odd chance, but Wilson remained Ramsey's first choice.
As hosts of the 1966 World Cup, England did not have to partake in a rigorous qualifying campaign, and Ramsey experimented with other left backs as he shaped a squad for the tournament. Later the same year, Wilson was playing at Wembley on six more occasions, ever-present as Ramsey's England got through a World Cup group consisting of Uruguay, Mexico and France; a highly volatile quarter final against a violent Argentina, and a semi final against the skilful but enigmatic Portuguese, which was Wilson's 50th appearance for his country.
Wilson was the oldest member of the England team in the World Cup final against West Germany.[4] Wilson's early headed clearance fell to striker Helmut Haller, who gave the Germans the lead as a result, but after a hat-trick from Geoff Hurst, England ran out 4–2 winners.
Ramsey continued to select Wilson as England progressed through the qualification process for the 1968 European Championships, ultimately going out in the semi finals and finishing third overall. Wilson's 63rd and final England cap came in the third-place play-off against the USSR. At the time of his final cap, he held the record for the highest number of appearances for an outfield player without having scored a goal, a record since broken by Gary Neville and Ashley Cole.
A serious knee injury suffered in the summer of 1968, coupled with the emergence of young Leeds United full back Terry Cooper (who would be as impressive in the 1970 World Cup as Wilson was in 1966, despite England's elimination in the last eight), ended Wilson's England career.
After retirement from football[edit]
Unquestionably the 1966 hero with the lowest public profile, Wilson nevertheless caused intrigue after his playing days ended by not staying within the game. Instead, he built a very successful undertaker's business in Huddersfield.[1] Wilson retired as an undertaker in 1997 to Halifax. In 2000, he and four of his 1966 teammates – Hunt, George Cohen, Nobby Stiles and Alan Ball – were appointed MBE for services to football after a high-profile campaign conducted by sections of the media, which was surprised that their contribution to English football's greatest day had never been officially recognised. The other six, plus Ramsey, had already received various honours. In 2008, Wilson was inducted into the English Football Hall of Fame by a select committee of ex-footballers.
He lived in Slaithwaite near Huddersfield with his wife Pat, who was three years his junior. They had two children.[5]
Ray and Pat Wilson were interviewed together in the book No More Worlds to Conquer by Chris Wright (2015).
Wilson has since been regarded as one of the finest left-backs that England has ever produced. Although not a goal scorer, his vision, passing ability, and strong runs down the left flank made him an invaluable and automatic member of the 1966 World Cup winning side. He is remembered as one of the greatest players to play for both Huddersfield and Everton.
Wilson was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease in 2004,[6] along with World cup winning teammates Martin Peters in 2013 and Nobby Stiles in 2012. It is feared that the disease was brought on by their heading of the heavier footballs used in their playing days.[7]

On 30 July 2016, fifty years to the day since England lifted the World Cup, Wilson's former club Huddersfield Town released its new second-change kit for the 2016–17 season in his honour. It was released with the tag line 'Legends Are Rarely Made', and featured a red shirt, in homage to the 1966 World Cup winning kit, and had Wilson's signature in white, just beneath the collar on the back, and below the white badge on the front. Ray's two sons and his wife released a statement alongside the release:
“ | We are very grateful and humbled that Huddersfield Town have chosen to honour our father with this kit. We have spoken to him about it and he is absolutely delighted. Ray often reminisces about his playing days and in particular his enjoyable time at Town and we'd like to thank the club for doing this tribute and it is lovely to know that Ray is so well thought of at Town.[8] | ” |
On 15 May 2018,[9] Wilson died in a care home in Huddersfield from Alzheimer's disease after suffering from the condition for 14 years.[10][11]

Gifted with a warm, gravelly voice, Scottish singer Ray Wilson has had a career of high and lows thus far. A Levi's TV ad dragged him out of rock limbo and propelled his group Stiltskin into the U.K. charts. A few months later, his hiring as Phil Collins' replacement in Genesis shoved him into the spotlight, but only for a brief period of time. The group's quick abandon in the face of adversity (i.e. unsatisfactory sales of the album Calling All Stations) brought Wilson down and left him unfairly carrying the weight of the failure. He is slowly building back a solo career.
Wilson was born in Dumfries, Scotland, September 9, 1968. His first high school rock bands included his brother Steve. In 1988, he met pianist Paul Holmes at a piano bar where his girlfriend sang. They started a songwriting partnership and two years later they formed Guaranteed Pure, which also included Steve Wilson and future Cut bassist John Haimes. The group released a couple of tapes and one CD, Swing Your Bag which they recorded at Fish's studio. The title track appeared on the Fish curated compilation Outpatients '93, but the group failed to attract much interest. Holmes returned to the piano bar circuit and Guaranteed Pure disintegrated.
Ray Wilson was not left without a band for long. In January 1994 he was asked to join Stiltskin. The group immediately entered the studio to record The Mind's Eye (1995). In the meantime, the song 'Inside' got featured on television in an advertisement for Levi's jeans. The exposure shot the single to number one, but the group fell apart over internal dissensions.
That's when Wilson heard that Genesis was looking for a new singer. He passed the audition and sang and contributed lyrics to the 1997 album Calling All Stations. His voice being somewhat reminiscent of Peter Gabriel's, fans of the band were hoping for a return to the group's earlier sound, but the singer never had a chance to leave his imprint. After album and ticket sales failed to meet expectations in America, part of Genesis' 1998 world tour was canceled, the group put on the ice, and Wilson unofficially sacked. He immediately formed Cut with drummer Nir Z. (Collins' drumming replacement), John Haimes, and brother Steve, releasing Millionairhead on the German market in 1999. In 2001. he made an acoustic solo tour of Europe which yielded the self-released album Unplugged, retitled Live and Acoustic when picked up by Inside Out Music in mid-2002. ~ François Couture
