A very sad day for Non-League football.

Today, in writing this news breaks of Rushden & Diamonds' goalkeeper Dale Roberts has died at just 24. My thoughts and prayers go to his family and friends.

Roberts, 24, was Diamonds' first choice keeper and also an England C International.

A very sad day for non-league football, R.I.P Dale Roberts.
