Derry City FC is deeply saddened to learn of the death overnight of former player and manager Jim Crossan.

'Jimbo' will be forever remembered for a lifetime of service to football in Derry and for leading the club into the League of Ireland in 1985.

Our thoughts are with the entire family circle at this difficult time.

May his gentle soul Rest In Peace.
