First black premier referee
Uriah Rennie passed away at the age of 65 after a battle with a rare neurological condition left him paralysed from the waist down.
RIP
RIP Uriah Rennie. My condolences to his family and friends.
Remember him from a game at Colchester a good few years back, he and his two linesman and fourth official were warming up in front of us, jogging up & down etc. My old mate Bernard (RIP) quite innocently asked, “Why is Leo warming up with officials?”. RIP to a no nonsense ref.
Veery sad, 65 is far to young. RIP.
