Peterborough United groundsman passes away, aged 21

The club will pay tribute to Will, who was not only a friend and colleague but also a supporter of the football club as well as an employee of Idverde, the company in charge of the upkeep of the pitch at the Weston Homes Stadium and the Mick George Training Academy, at the next home fixture against Portsmouth on Saturday, March 7.

A club spokesman said: “Everyone connected with the football club were shocked to learn of Will’s death. We are in constant contact with the family at this incredibly difficult time and are offering support to colleagues affected by his tragic death.”
