Former U’s striker Craig Farrell (2009) has sadly passed away at the age of 39.

I honestly can’t remember him playing for us, is there any footage of his goals for us?
Thank you.His two goals. One at home in a 3-0 win against Barrow.
And the other in a 3-0 away win against Eastbourne, more noted for Adam Murray’s goal direct from a corner.
He was a fairly modest player but certainly contributed to our late charge to the playoffs in our 2008-09 campaign. He carved out a career in the lower leagues and did enough to catch the eye of Chris Wilder.
39 is way too young. RIP Craig Farrell.
You were his close personal friend?Almost the perfect "hold up/support" striker for his partners, and a genuinely top, top bloke. Shocker.
I weirdly remember him playing for us quite well.
So young, so sorry for this family.
No need for sarcasm, but we shared several mutual friends and had a couple of evenings out with him, my brother refereed several of his games and I know a few players who played with him at York City.. so yes I have an idea that he was a nice guy.You were his close personal friend?
