Everyone at Bishop Auckland Football Club are very sad to hear that, over the weekend, ex Two Blues player John Fenwick has unfortunately passed away, aged 78. John played in the team (pictured), which was an excellent side, and one of the greatest sides that the Club has seen. We also saw quite a bit of John over the last few months at Heritage Park, taking part in the car boot sales with his flowers and veg from his beloved allotment. John was full of some fantastic stories and he enjoyed telling them, to which we enjoyed listening. He played in local bands as well as playing a very high standard of football.

He will be deeply missed, RIP John.
