I’m not on Facebook either just the old fashioned world wide web
Scunthorpe United can confirm first team manager Neil Cox was absent from Saturday’s game against Exeter City after receiving news upon arrival at the stadium that his father had been taken ill.
Neil’s dad sadly passed away on Sunday and the manager would like to thank the staff on Ward 22 of Scunthorpe General Hospital on behalf of his family for the care and support they provided for his father.
Everyone at the football club sends their sympathies to Neil and his family, who are in our thoughts at this sad time.
