Rescue workers rushed to the Gloucestershire Football Association pitch in Almondsbury on Sunday.

Shortly after kick-off, Morgan informed the referee that he was feeling ill before collapsing moments later.

Sadly, despite the best efforts of the paramedic, his trainer and the hospital staff, Morgan died after what was believed to be a heart attack.
