Tommy McLaughlin

By Chris Wight

President Hawcoat Park.

It is with much sadness that Tommy passed away on Tuesday 6th March 2018, aged 88.

Tommy spent a lifetime in football in the Furness Area. After he retired from playing he spent a number of years on the Committee at Dalton United before moving to Vickers Social [now Hawcoat Park]in 1988. He was elected Chairman in 1992 a position he held until last year when he became President.

Tommy was elected to the West Lancashire Management Committee in 2007, a position he held until 2014 when he retired due to health reasons.

Our thoughts are with Joan and the family at this time and the League will remember the contribution he has made over the many, many years he has given to football.

His funeral will be on Thursday 15th march 2018, 1.45pm at Barrow Crematorium.

Where next?
