I got told a couple of days ago that we have lost another dedicated supporter - a guy called Dave Ford, who was only 52, suddenly passed away earlier this week. I do recognise him from the lower North stand and apparently he used to be on the Supporters Trust Committee.

It was posted on the Trinity Facebook page 3 days ago...

https://en-gb.facebook.com/wakefieldtrinityrl/

He went by the nickname of "Fordy" and I know we have a "Fordy" who posts on here, so am fearing that it was the same guy?? :( :(
Is anyone able to confirm/deny this ??

Regardless of any replies, we have lost another one, condolences go out to his family and friends :( :(

Sad news
RIP Fordy

No time is great but 52 is way too young.

If so totally shocked. I know he was young but I’ve been friendly with him on here for years and for some reason I thought he was even younger, the same age as my kids, about 30. He seemed to have a very young outlook on life in the nicest way.

Really sad, far too young and positive to die.

RIP
