Chris Penman (born 12 September 1945) is a former footballer who made 30 appearances in the Football League playing as a goalkeeper for Darlington in the 1960s. He was on the books of Preston North End, but never represented them in the League, and went on to play non-league football for South Shields.[2] When he was only 18 years old, he was in goal as Darlington suffered what remains their record Football League defeat, 100 at Doncaster Rovers in the Fourth Division.[3][4]
