After the news of Stephen Darby’s retirement was confirmed, the football world have paid their thoughts and respects to him…
A warrior and a winner on the field – with no doubt the same approach off it. Over 1,200 players have represented #bcafc: few have the right to call themselves a legend. Stephen Darby is very much in that bracket.

Devastating breaking news: Stephen Darby has been diagnosed with motor neurone disease. Horrible, horrible news for a player who gave so much in claret and amber and a thoroughly decent man …
