Tributes paid to former football star

Barney Daniels, who played for Stockport County, Manchester United and Manchester City during his 'whirlwind' career which took him from non-league to the top flight, and back again, died on June 13 aged 74, his family have announced.

His daughter Rachelle said on X, formerly Twitter: "At 7.30am yesterday morning our amazing dad Barney Daniels passed away peacefully in his sleep.

"We are absolutely devastated and heartbroken. Our Dad was our hero, a true gentleman and a legend xxx"

The much-loved centre-forward, who was christened Bernard but known as Barney, was born in Salford and was a Salford Boys player as a youth.

He was spotted by Manchester United and signed as an amateur at Old Trafford, where he spent two years.

He was released by the then Reds boss Wilf McGuinness without featuring for the first team.

He joined Salford Amateurs (now Salford City) before moving to Ashton United.
