We are deeply saddened to have to report the passing of two former Witton Albion Board members in recent days.
DOUG LLOYD sadly passed away in Overdene House in Winsford on 27th April at the age of 86.
GORDON BENNETT peacefully in hospital on 28th April at the age of 87.
The thoughts and prayers of everyone at Witton Albion go out to their respective families at this very distressing time.
As is commonplace under the present circumstances, private funerals will be held in the near future.
Very sad news indeed. Two tremendous characters who both gave great service to the club. So many memories of both of them. Doug always had a story to tell -not many of them repeatable! And Gordon-Whenever we travelled away he seemed surprised that people remembered him from previous visits, sometimes years ago. I wasn’t! RIP
2 more good Wittoners gone from the Albion World RIP Doug and Gordon UTA
Yes, very sad news. I was on the board with Doug during the 1990’s. I was also on the Mid-Cheshire FA with Gordon for 20 years.
