Template:Use British English Template:Infobox football biography Robert Samuel Fairman (13 July 1883 – 1968) was an English footballer who played as a full back or wing half. He scored two goals in 38 appearances in the Football League over two spells for Birmingham,[1] and played 90 Southern League matches for West Ham United.[2]

Fairman was born in Southampton, Hampshire. He began his football career with Southampton, although he never played a first-team match, before joining Birmingham in 1907.[3] He played regularly at left half at the start of the 1908–09 season, but lost his place when the club signed Thomas Daykin,[4] and he moved to West Ham United, then a Southern League club, at the end of the season. He spent three years with West Ham, playing more than 100 games in all competitions, before returning to Birmingham in 1912.[2] He played little first-team football after his return, and retired from the game in 1917.[5]
