It is with great sadness that we have to announce the death of 1993 Promotion winning team member Ian Hamilton.Ian sadly passed away today ( 6th September) at the tender age of 55 after a short illness. Hammy made 240 appearances for us scoring over 20 goals and was an integral part of the successful play off promotion winning side in 1993.
We signed him from Scunthorpe United in 1992, 6 years later he moved onto Bramall Lane. Following his retirement, he returned to The Midlands and had various sales appointments. He was an active member of the Former Players Association being very much part of our team who entertained the Club’s Hospitality Guests and Sponsors. It was only in the last few years that he stopped playing charity football matches, keeping his love for football going.
Extremely popular with his fellow members and supporters, he will be sadly missed by us all.
Our thoughts got to his mother, daughter Rhianna, son Luca, granddaughter his family and friends.
RIP HAMMY.
