This Thursday, Windsor Park will be a place of reflection and remembrance as the club pays tribute to former player Michael Newberry, who tragically passed away in December. Michael, a cherished member of our football family, will be laid to rest on the same day. In honour of his contributions to the club and the community, we invite supporters to join us in celebrating his life.

As a mark of respect, the club has designated the home dugout at Windsor Park as a space for fans to leave flowers and personal tributes to Michael. Supporters are welcome to visit between 10am and 5pm to pay their respects. This gesture reflects Michael’s profound friendships within the team and his endearing connection to the club.

Supporters can enter the stadium through the Players Entrance at the back of the South Stand and will be shown where to go by security staff.

Michael’s warmth and humility endeared him to teammates and fans alike. As we mourn his loss, we also celebrate the countless memories he leaves behind.

Thursday will be a poignant day for all connected with Windsor Park and the wider Irish League football family as we remember Michael’s life.
