IT IS with deep sorrow and regret that Slough Town Football Club have announced news that Kevin McGoldrick sadly passed away this morning following a brave battle with cancer.

Affectionately known to all as ‘Super Kev', McGoldrick was the club’s physiotherapist of 32 years.

A statement from the club read: "Words cannot begin to describe how truly honoured we have been to have had Kevin at our club and in our lives.

"He was not only the best and most dedicated physio in the league, but one of the warmest and humblest people you could ever meet.

"Surrounded by his family, Kev was proud and brave to the end.

"The club will pass on memorial arrangements in due course but for now our thoughts and prayers are with Kevin’s wife Sue and family at this difficult time."

A message from Kevin's family read: "We are devastated to announce the passing of our hero.

"Super kev really was a warrior in his fight with cancer.

"We are so grateful for the support of Slough Town Football Club, the fans and football family.

We are now going to plan a send off to make him proud. We would love you all to be there with us."
