Celebrate Murph's life

Supporters who wish to pay their respects to legendary Imps manager Colin Murphy are invited to do so at a memorial service at Lincoln Cathedral on Tuesday 31 October.

Fans, friends and former players are all welcome to join this celebration of Murph’s colourful life in football.

Supporters are also invited to attend the wake at the Stags Head on Newport at around 4pm.

Murph, as he was affectionately known, had two successful spells overseeing the first-team at Sincil Bank - from 1978 to 1985, then again from 1987 to 1990 - memorably leading the Imps back to the Football League at the first time of asking.
 
He was also the first inductee into the club’s Hall of Fame in December 2018, with the players’ lounge renamed Murph’s in his honour in October 2021.
 
The funeral service will begin at 2pm at Lincoln Cathedral and will be followed by a private family committal.
