Dick Griffiths 1937 - 2011

It is with great sadness that I report the loss of another Coventrians legend. Dick Griffiths passed away on Saturday morning 18th June after a short illness. Dick, a tough tackling fullback and deadly accurate goalkicker, played for Covents from the mid 1960s to 1983. At his peak in the early 70s, he slotted literally hundreds of points and kept the dressing room and bar honest with his sharp and acerbic wit. We were lucky enough to enjoy Dick's company at several recent old boy's functions. He will be sorely missed.

Our condolences to D J (current captain and grandson of Dick) and the rest of the family. Funeral arrangements are as yet, to be confirmed.
