Taffy has been the secretary of our club for the past three years, carrying out his duties in a professional manner and always with the clubs best interests at heart.

His popularity throughout All levels of football in Wigan and on the NWCFL circuit is unquestionable and I know for sure a lot of people will be deeply saddened by this news. Taffy’s infectious character will be missed by everyone at our club and I for one would like to pay tribute to his sterling efforts whilst Secretary.

We would like to offer our sincere condolences to his family at this very sad time. Everyone connected with the club will certainly miss “Taffy” Roberts and we are without question better off for him having been a part of it.

Regards

Jimmy Whyte
Ashton Athletic Chairman

Picture - Taffy enjoyed his FA Cup day out in York last Saturday with the lads, despite the result. Thanks for everything Taff...
