Wife’s tribute to Nottingham Forest fan who ‘lived for his family’ and died after watching game.
Paul Jenner had been going to watch Nottingham Forest since 1976 and passed away last month after watching a game at the City Ground.
The wife of a dad-of-five Forest fan who died on his way home from a game at the City Ground last month says he was a “perfect all rounder” who lived for his family. Paul Jenner, 61, had watched Nottingham Forest in the Carabao Cup semi-final first leg against Manchester United on the evening of January 25 and was driving back to his home in Stamford.
But after having only been driving for around five minutes, Paul Jenner’s van stopped on Davies Road in West Bridgford and a passer-by spotted him at the wheel, initially believing he had fallen asleep. Alison Jenner, 54, who had been married to Paul for 32 years, said: “The person who saw Paul went round the other side of the van and pipped the horn, but Paul just didn’t move.”
