It is with deep sadness that we share the news that Jimmy Simpson, one of the Blaydon Rugby Football Club family has passed away

Jimmy was a long time playing member of the club, Jim was a more than competent scrum half and was a regular member of the infamous Bricks rugby team from its early inception. He subsequently moved into refereeing and continued to support the club.
