Lloyd Jason Blackman (born 24 September 1983) is an English retired semi-professional football forward, who is currently manager of Ramsgate. As a player, he played in the Football League for Brentford and after his release in 2004, he embarked on a nomadic career in non-league football.

Career

Brentford

A forward, Blackman began his career in the youth system at Crystal Palace and later moved to Brentford,[2] where he began a scholarship in 2000.[3] He progressed to sign his first professional contract in 2002.[4] He made his first team debut with a start in a 5–1 Second Division defeat to Peterborough United on 28 September 2002, which proved to be his only appearance of the 2002–03 season.[5] After signing a new one-year contract in May 2003,[6] Blackman made just four appearances during 2003–04 and spent much of the season away on loan at non-league clubs Scarborough, Chelmsford City and Cambridge City.[7][8][9][10] He was released in late April 2004,[11] after having made just five appearances during two seasons as a professional at Griffin Park.[12]

Non-league football

In 2004, Blackman embarked on a career in non-league football.[13] Between 2004 and 2014, he played in the Conference, Isthmian League, Southern League and Southern Counties East League for 15 clubs.[13]

International career

In October 2004, Blackman was named in manager Paul Fairclough's initial 30-man England National Game XI squad for a match versus Serie C on 10 November 2004.[14] He was not named in the final 16-man squad.[15]

Coaching career

Between 2012 and 2015, Blackman held the role of first team coach at Hythe Town and Ashford United respectively.[16][17] He moved to Isthmian League First Division South club Ramsgate as first team coach in December 2015 and was promoted to manager in January 2017.[18][19]
