John Duncan’s family would like to announce that prior to the service on Friday, November 4, people will have the opportunity to pay respect along the route the cortege will take to the Crooked Spire Church.
The cortege will start their procession at 1pm from Matlock. Their first stop will be at St Margaret’s Drive, the site of the old Saltergate ground. Estimated time of arrival will be 1.20pm. Anyone wishing to congregate here are asked to be respectful of local residents.
The cortege will then proceed to the Technique Stadium, and will arrive there at approximately 1.30pm. Here the cortege will circle the ground before heading to the Crooked Spire Church.
Those wishing to attend the service at 2pm at The Crooked Spire Church are welcome, but the family ask that seating is allocated to friends and family first.
Following the service, an invitation-only reception is being held at CFC.
Family flowers only please but donations in lieu of flowers are welcomed to John’s nominated charities by clicking on the following links:

The family would like to thank everyone at Chesterfield Football Cub for their overwhelming support and help during this difficult time. They would also like to give a massive thank you to all the supporters of Chesterfield FC for the amazing and heartfelt tribute before the recent game against Bromley. It meant the world to them.
