Friend's Football Team Honors Fallen Hero

A poignant tribute has emerged in Nottinghamshire with the formation of Forever Ghost FC, a football team established in memory of Tyler Fairman. Tyler, 26, tragically passed away on May 12th, three days after being hit by a car in Market Place, Arnold. His friend, Jay Brown, initiated the team, adopting Tyler's nickname, 'Ghost,' for its name. The club aspires to join the Nottingham Sunday League and has scheduled a fundraising match against Angel and Ziarn FC on May 30th. This event will be held at Basford United's ground. The proceeds from this match are designated to help Tyler's pregnant partner cover funeral expenses. Tyler is remembered as a devoted partner, loyal friend, and loving son, whose absence has left a void in the community. His family stated that his world shattered, becoming much darker without him. Tyler is survived by his three-year-old son and a partner expecting a child in August. The football club also serves as a critical support system for Tyler's friends as they navigate their grief together, fostering a sense of brotherhood and mutual care. In a related development, Duane Anthony, 40, was charged on May 11th with five counts of attempted murder following the incident. He is also facing charges including aggravated vehicle taking and driving offenses, with a future court appearance scheduled for June 8th. Police are continuing their investigation, now treating the case as a murder investigation.
