United's work is entitled ‘No Barriers’ and pays particular attention to Tull, a former footballer with Clapton, Tottenham and Northampton Town, who was sadly killed at the second Battle of the Somme in March, 1918. Tull had a remarkable life, born to a father from the Caribbean, he was orphaned and had to overcome great prejudice and hardship as a pioneering black player.
The half-back made his home debut for Spurs against United in September 1909 but would become a War hero – signing up to the Middlesex Regiment on two occasions after initially being hospitalised with shell shock.
