CLUB: Farewell to Kit Man Col

Farewell to Kit Man Col

2 March 2024

Today's match against Reading marks the end of an era as it’s the final game for long serving kit man Colin Nixon.

Colin joined the club at the start of the 2009/10 season and has undertaken kit duties for well over 700 first team games covering over 150,000 miles during the last 15 seasons.

Chief Executive Nigel Clibbens wished Colin all the best for the future: “Colin has been a fixture at the club for a long time and has given fantastic service. 

"He has been an unsung hero behind the scenes. It’s an important job to ensure the smooth operations of the football team and the hours are long. 

"Many fans will have seen Col unloading the kit in the early hours of the morning after long away trips before he is back later to get it ready for training. 

"He has been great to work with and is held in the utmost respect by everyone inside the club. He will be greatly missed by all club staff, especially that laugh!

"Best wishes to Col for the future."
