Chelsea Legend Passes Away; Lampard Eventually Broke His Goal Record

Tambling stands as Chelsea London's second-highest goalscorer in history. He played for "The Blues" from 1959 to 1970, making 370 appearances and netting 202 goals. In 2013, Frank Lampard surpassed his record, scoring 211 goals for the club, though it took him 648 matches to do so.

Tambling also holds the club record for most goals in a single match, having scored five against Aston Villa in 1966.

"Bobby leaves an enormous void in our lives. We are all better, kinder, and richer for having known him. His warmth, wisdom, humor, and love will remain with us forever. To his loving family, close friends, and adoring Chelsea family, we extend our deepest and most heartfelt condolences. We have all lost a true legend and a very special man," Crosshaven announced.

Tambling earned three caps for the English national team before also playing for Crystal Palace. He concluded his playing career in Ireland, settling in Cork. There, he later coached local teams including Cork Celtic, Cork City, and Crosshaven. He was diagnosed with dementia several years ago.
