- Robert "Bob" Fullam (1895–1971) was an Irish footballer and one of the best-known players in the League of Ireland in the 1920s [1]. A versatile attacking player, he was skilful but also had a tough-man image. Born in Ringsend, the son of John and Mary Fullam, Bob worked as a docker in Dublin, and played for Shelbourne F.C. 1918–21, winning the Irish Cup in 1920. He then transferred to Shamrock Rovers and played in the inaugural Free State Cup final in 1922. In that match, his skirmishes with Charlie Dowdall of eventual champions St. James's Gate F.C. helped provoke post-match disturbances involving players and supporters. This led to a ban for the start of the following season. Nevertheless, he finished top scorer with 27 goals in 22 games, as Rovers won their first League title. He transferred to Leeds United for 1923–24 but played only seven games. He returned to Rovers the next season, helping them to the Double, as "give it to Bob" became a Dublin catchphrase. In the 1926 Cup final, he famously pulled out of a goalmouth challenge, sacrificing a goal (and the Cup) to prevent injuring the Fordsons goalkeeper. Fullam made his debut for the Irish Free State against Italy in Turin in 1926; he scored in the return match against Italy in 1927. As he was now 30, and the selectors had a preference for young players, this second cap was his last. He continued to play for Shamrock Rovers into the early 1930s. In 1927/28 he went to the United States along with Dinny Doyle and several other players from both North and South. Upon their arrival in Philadelphia, they formed their club which was known as Irish Philadelphia Celtic. After a year Bob returned to Dublin where he renewed his association with Rovers. After his playing days, Bob continued with the Hoops as a coach, a capacity he held until his departure to London in 1945. His time with Rovers was littered with medals. He won the League and the FAI Cup 4 times scoring 92 league goals and 9 Cup goals along with 6 Inter-League caps. In 1956 Bob was awarded damages in a libel case taken against the Sunday Dispatch for a story that the journalist admitted making up. During his time at Shamrock Rovers Fullam played alongside his second cousin Billy Behan who later became a successful scout for Manchester United. Fullam died in Slough on 21 July 1971. (en)
- Robert "Bob" Fullam, né à Ringsend, un quartier de Dublin, en 1897 et mort à Londres le 1er janvier 1974, est un joueur de football irlandais. Il est des plus connus parmi les footballeurs du Championnat d'Irlande de football des années 1920. Fullam jouait au poste d’attaquant (sans poste fixe sur la ligne d’attaque) et avait la réputation de jouer dur. Fullam a été docker sur le port de Dublin. Il commence à jouer au football pour le club dublinois de Shelbourne FC avec lequel il gagne la Coupe d'Irlande de football en 1920. Il est ensuite transféré aux Shamrock Rovers et joue en 1922 avec son nouveau club la toute première finale de la coupe d'Irlande indépendante (alors dénommée Free State Cup). Dans ce match, ses démêlés avec Charlie Dowdall du Saint James's Gate FC ont participé à provoquer les troubles qui ont eu lieu après le coup de sifflet finale entre joueurs et supporters. Il en ressortira avec plusieurs matchs de suspension, l’excluant du début de la saison suivante. Néanmoins cela ne l’empêche pas de terminer meilleur du championnat avec 27 buts en 22 matchs et de propulser les Shamrock Rovers vers le premier titre de champion de leur histoire. Pour la saison 1923-1924, Fullam est transféré au club anglais de Leeds United. Il ne joue que 7 matchs. Il retourne aux Shamrock Rovers et participe au gain du premier doublé Coupe d’Irlande-Championnat d’Irlande du club. L’expression « give it to Bob » (« donne la à Bob ») devient une expression courante à Dublin et rend hommage à ses talents de buteurs. Fullam fait ses débuts en équipe de football de l'État Libre d'Irlande contre l’équipe nationale italienne à Turin en 1926. IL marque un but lors du match retour en Irlande en 1927. Ce seront ses deux seules et uniques sélections, car les entraineurs irlandais souhaitent alors donner la priorité à de jeunes joueurs et Fullam a déjà 30 ans. En 1927-1928, il part aux États-Unis et avec d’autres joueurs irlandais fonde le club du Philadelphia Celtic. Il rentre ensuite en Irlande et termine sa carrière de joueur aux Shamrock Rovers. Il en devient ensuite l’entraîneur et reste au club jusqu’en 1945 date à laquelle il part pour Londres. (fr)
