Former England and Luton Town goalkeeper Ron Baynham has passed away at the age of 94.
Baynham made 434 appearances for Luton during his playing career having made his debut for the club in 1951.
He went on to make three caps for England in games against Denmark, Northern Ireland and Spain – all of which the Three Lions won.
In 1959, Baynham helped Luton Town reach the FA Cup final against Nottingham Forest.

And the former goalkeeper admitted later in life that he ranked the FA Cup final above earning a cap for England.
However, the match was also the “biggest disappointment” of Baynham’s career with Luton losing to Forest.
“Both were tremendous highlights but I rated Wembley for the cup final, even though it brought me the biggest disappointment of my career when we lost to Nottingham Forest.
“Sadly, the team that day did not play like the team I knew.”
