BRIAN THORPE

It is with great regret that I must inform you that Brian Thorpe has died this Thursday after a long battle with cancer. Brian played in the league for more than 20 years for a number of clubs, including Droylsden, Langtons Social, Openshaw B, and most recently, Longsight B. Our thoughts go to his family, friends and fellow players at this sad time.
