Matty Roseberry RiP



Legend the fella gave to the last, top Mackem and deep and sincere condolences to the family, we’ve lost a goodun here xxx
 
RIP to a decent man and friend, first met him in 73 when myself and a mate were hitchhiking to Sheffield for our game weeks before the semi final I recall. We spent the whole day and night with him and his good mate, last spoke at the Stadium upstairs after my Grandson was a mascot last year.He will be missed by many as his love for SAFC and Durham CCC made him many many friends here and throughout the country.
 
Big cricketing family, son Mike captained Durham, very successful at Middlesex, Andrew played first class cricket for Leics too. Matty was heavily involved in helping to get 1st class status for Durham. RIP

I only knew of him because of that and those of us who love cricket and Durham CCC will be eternally grateful for what he and the others did in getting the club first class status. That in itself is a great legacy.
