Oldest Living football league players 24th January 2026
Ray McKee, who was the oldest living former leagueplayer (or rather, the oldest we knew was still alive) - died on 6th December 2025, aged 99. https://www.dignityfunerals.co.uk/funeral-notices/06-12-2025-raymond-trevor-mckee/ Trevor Hitchen now takes the mantle as I seriously doubt Ward, Harding, Mellor and Kubicki are alive but can't find the golden nugget to confirm they're gone either.
