Chris Bart-Williams RIP
Sad day yesterday what with the passing suddenly of Trevor Francis followed by the awful news that Chris Bart-Williams had also died aged just 49.
Chris lived and worked in Florida and was head of coaching for Dade County FC in Miami. After finishing up from professional football in Malta Chris moved to Connecticut to work in the women’s game. He was then assistant coach at Quinnipiac University.
Chris spent the next decade coaching, mentoring and recruiting young players to the game he loved.
Trevor Francis and Chris played together at Sheffield Wednesday and Chris played 23 games for the Addicks from 2002 to 2003. His big grin and effortless style was hard to forget.
Sleep well Bartman.
