Playing career

Having been born in 1924, Black's early football career was disrupted by the Second World War, during which he made guest appearances for both Southampton and Chelsea, winning the South Final of the Football League War Cup with the latter. He was transferred by Aberdeen, who held his permanent registration, to Southampton in December 1947. He made nearly 100 league appearances for Southampton, and made his only appearance for Scotland, a 2–0 defeat by England, at Hampden Park, while he was with the club.

Black was transferred to Fulham in 1950 in exchange for Hugh Kelly, and made over 250 league appearances for that club. He moved down to the Southern League to play for Bath City, with whom he won a Southern League Championship and a Somerset Premier Cup in 1960, followed by a Southern League Runners-up place in 1962. He then moved to Canterbury City. He retired from football in 1964.
