I know he's not a Trinity player but a local rugby league legend......as both an International referee but also bringing on untold number of juniors at Eastmoor.
Sad news.
RIP Fred.

Hard and fair sums him up for me, always more sad when you know em, condolences KK.
RIP Fred.

It's not often you find out a family member has died over social media.

Really sorry if that caused a problem.
Obviously only posted once it was out in the public domain and was done out of respect.

No issue with the post Poptart, its just an odd circumstance that's all.

RIP Mr Lindop

R.I.P. Fred my old Eastmoor friend, a Rugby League man through and through, and a great Referee.

RIP Mr Lindop.

He was an old mate of my Dad, also an Eastmoor lad, back in the day, and introduced me to him, back in the early 80's.

A great referee, and did a lot for our sport in the local community

Thoughts with your family KK.

Sad news, my mother grew up with him as they lived over the fence from the family on Eastmoor. I came across him many times through playing at amateur level and he always spoke every time we passed afterwards .

Remember him refereeing in the '80's and IMO was probably the best referee of his time...R.I.P.

RIP. Even when fans were bawling and shouting and sulking about decisions against their teams they knew he was fair. And deep down they knew he was probably right too.
