He was “the most kind, caring person' who will be missed by his family and teammates
Tributes have poured in for a Lincolnshire footballer who tragically died after collapsing on the pitch during a match.
“We are sad to say Michael will leave a massive hole in our hearts. He was a genuine lovely lad who never gave us a moments trouble. He was liked by everyone and will never be forgotten. Nothing was ever too much trouble and he always had a big smile on his face,” the club said in a statement. “Orientated by people, Michael would always find the time to be there for those he loved and cared for. From his young nephew through to his Grandfather and all the brothers, sisters, aunties, uncles, and friends in between.
“With a strong sense of duty, Michael wanted the best for those around him, and nothing was too much to ask. He was the very embodiment of valuing people and relationships above everything else. The tribute continued: “For many, Michael will be missed, and his family and friends have a void that can, and will never, be filled. But the memories we hold of him will stand the test of time.
