Tony Baker, a lifelong supporter of Hereford United, has died at the age of 71.

Baker seldom missed a match at home or away and was a regular on the HUISA coach.

Gerald Powell often travelled with him.

“Tony followed the club for 60 years," Powell told the Hereford Times.

"We had some great times following Hereford United at Edgar Street and at all over the country and he was a lovely man with a heart of gold.

“On away trips, we often joked that Tony would start eating his sandwiches before the coach had even got out of Hereford.”

His funeral will take place at Hereford Crematorium at Noon on Wednesday, September 3.
