Ex Bury captain Martyn Forrest has died aged 43
The former midfielder’s death comes 14 years after collapsing mid-match, after which he was diagnosed with a brain tumour.
His death was confirmed by the Shakers and his wife Lisa, who wrote in tribute: “It is with the heaviest of hearts that I write this message to let you know Martyn has passed away. "After undergoing brain surgery 3 times, radiotherapy and chemotherapy we were given the unfortunate news in March 2022 that the treatment was no longer working.
Fans gave their condolences as they remembered the ex captain, as one person tweeted: "An absolute legend and friend. The life and soul of every party. When I think of you I smile. You will be sadly missed. Keep them laughing up there pal."
