Happy times at Newland and Stelrad with Brian. Proof that you don't have to shout and scream at people to command respect and get the best out of them. RIP Brian.

Was my teacher at Bransholme High. Good guy who will be missed.Best wishes to his family.

I'll always remember Brian as being one of the few coaches who had an appreciation of the Laws of the Game and the pressures of being an official. If he had criticism, it was a foolish bloke who ignored it.



RIP Brian

First met Brian at Newland some 30 years ago, he seemed to have a natural ability to get the best out of somebody.Then had the pleasure of meeting up with him again at Stelrad and he had not changed. One of the few people who put so much into peoples lives, only spoke to him 6 months back a true gent. God bless you.

RIP Bryan, remember him from my dads time at newland with lockos luck, what a top bloke

rip bryan, run the rugby team at cooper school, great guy who loved the game

A true gent who certainly knew his rugby.



Sleep well sir.

Got to know him through secretary's role when he was a Commitee member, couldn't do enough to help you. Genuine bloke who was a real gent, commiserations to Kev and rest of family.

I'll be passing these messages on to Richard, Brians son just to let him know (as if he would'nt know already) how much respect people he came in contact with had for him!



thanks for your input.

Regards to all his Family - only knew him through the Stelrad link to say hello - and he did say Hello- never seemed to forget who you were - I think the last time I saw him was at Wakefield this season RIP

I was a colleague of Brian when he retired and chatted many times about FC and rugby in general during our time at Cooper. He was a great bloke and he will of course be sadly missed by all. Deepest sympathy to all the family.

Now you have me worried that you used to be one of my teachers.
