Richard Dawson Death | Richard Dawson Obituary – Richard Dawson a former striker of Rotherham United has been announced dead in a tweet made on the 20th of August 2020 by Rotherham United (@OfficialRUFC). Richard Dawson began his career as a professional footballer with Rotherham United in 1978 and continue to wear the club’s colours until 1981, when near-neighbours Doncaster Rovers swooped for his services.
According to his obituary, Richard Dawson scored his first goal for the Millers just days before his 18th birthday to put him in the esteemed company of the few players who have netted for the club at 17 years old. He remained at the club for the early part of Ian Porterfield’s reign as Millers manager and was a part of the squad in that famous 1980/81 season – in which the likes of Ronnie Moore, John Breckin and Tony Towner stormed the Third Division to claim the title – and departed in February of the same season to join Doncaster.
