Former player Ray Tumbridge has sadly passed away aged 54, after a long battle with cancer.

Introduced to league football by Theo Foley at the age of 18, Ray held down a regular first team place during Theo's last season but fell out of favour following the arrival of Andy Nelson. 

He made 239 league and cup appearances for Gravesend & Northfleet (Ebbsfleet), finding the net on 26 occasions.

The Former Players Association send their condolences to Ray's family.
