Brian Sparrow

Good day , A very long time since I put something on this site. Many of you will remember an old favourite from Southbury Road days Brian Sparrow.

I'm sorry to be the bearer of sad news that he has died aged just 57 from a heart attack.  

Regards Tony W.

What terrible news, no age at all.

Until my loft was cleared this year I had a tape of Mtch of The Day showing his pitch length run to support Paul Furlong, in the last minute, who decided to shoot and blaze over the bar. A pass to Brian would have seen him with a tap in and EFC in another 3rd tie of the FA Cup, but we lost the replay..

Sympathy to his family.

Very sorry to hear of the sad and premature loss of Brian. For those who were not around, Brian was a classy midfielder who played left sided defender in EFC's last FA Trophy winning side. This was alongside England keeper Andy Pape and England skipper Dave Howell; Paul Furlong who went on to play for Watford and Chelsea ; Paul Harding who went on to Notts County and not forgetting Enfield legend Steve King, IMO one of the best, if not THE best, ever to pull on an Enfield shirt. God rest Brian and how we could do with some of these players now!
