In memorye of a great guy, great player and great manager. We will miss you Joe. All at Hanwell Town FC
Rest in peace Joe, thank you for your enormous contribution to community football & sport in Purbeck/Dorset. A fantastic man who will be missed and remembered fondly. Condolences and best wishes to Joe’s family.
I have very happy memories of the football clubs and 5-a-side football that Joe used to run in Swanage and am very sad to hear of his passing. RIP Joe.
Thank you for sharing your passion for football. I have many fond memories of Joe’s summer coaching sessions in Swanage in the 90s. A great coach, always taught the ‘why’ as well as the ‘how’, and loved telling us how good the Brazilians, players like Rivellino etc.. Rest in peace, Joe.

An inspiring guy! So sorry to see you go too early.

RIP Joe, I’ll never forget you, especially as you thought I was too old to play in the first team at Ruislip Manor in the 70’s, when I was only 27! You were a great man, shame we lost contact
