FOOTBALL: The funeral of Thackley stalwart June Willingham will be at Nab Wood Crematorium on Thursday, January 25 (12.40pm). June, who succumbed aged 70 after a long battle against cancer, was a familiar face to everyone in the Northern Counties East League. She had been a major part of the Dennyboys, who have spent all their time in the Premier Division since the competition was formed in 1982. A minute's silence was observed by clubs across the league at the weekend to honour her, as well as former NCE League president Frank Catt and referee David Fields.
