Sad passing of local GP & club doctor

The club is sad to inform supporters of the death of Doctor David Wilkinson last Tuesday 20th September at 84 years of age.

Dr Wilkinson was a local GP for many years & was also a keen Frickley supporter, being the club doctor until his retirement. He gave generous financial support to the club too & although suffering ill health in recent years he would get up to the ground to watch matches whenever he was able.

His funeral is at Pontefract Crematorium on Wednesday 5th October at 2.15pm

The club extends its deepest sympathy to his family on their sad loss.

On a personal note I remember Dr Wilkinson to be a kind, sympathetic man when he shared a surgery in South Elmsall with the thunderous, fearsome Dr Graham, a man who did not take kindly to issuing sick notes!
