Martin Burleigh

Former keeper passes away
The club is sad to learn about the passing of our former keeper Martin Burleigh, at the age of 71.
Martin played 112 games for us in two spells. He first signed for us in October 1974 from Newcastle United and made 31 appearances for us over the rest of that season, before he joined Carlisle United.
He stayed with the Cumbrians until the summer of 1977 when he rejoined us, and he stayed until the end of the 1978/79 season.
We would like to pass our sincere condolences to all Martin's family and friends.
