Dean was a much-valued member of our men’s setup, and news of his passing has left everyone at the club shocked and saddened. He wasn’t just a player, he was a true friend to many, someone who brought great energy and warmth to training, matchdays, and life off the pitch.

Dean gave everything for the shirt. His commitment and passion were a constant presence. Whether you played alongside him or knew him from the sidelines, Dean’s impact was felt far and wide.

At times like this, we are reminded how much more football is than just a game. It’s about people, friendships, and the community it creates. Dean embodied all of that, and he will be dearly missed.

Our thoughts and condolences are with Dean’s family, friends, and loved ones during this incredibly difficult time. As a club, we will do all we can to support them.
