Kitman Coops Remembered 15 Years On

It is fifteen years today since kitman Alan Cooper sadly passed away at Liberty Way.

Coops tragically collapsed at the stadium as he collected the kit for an away match at Didcot.

Alan had been associated with the club for 12 years. After a period spent helping out with the youth team, he took responsibility for the players’ kit, attending every training session and first team fixture.

Manager at the time Kevin Wilkin said “Coops was always a fantastic help to me and the players. It was a labour of love for him and he will be very sorely missed.”

All at the club pass on our best wishes to Alan’s family and friends.
