Tributes have been paid to South Manchester Sports stalwart Andrew Cohen, who died after suffering a heart attack while jogging. 

The 41-year-old fulfilled a host of volunteer roles off the pitch during a 20-year association.

More than 700 people attended his funeral on Sunday with former players travelling from London to pay their respects.

The father-of-two was rushed to Wythenshawe Hospital last Thursday but passed away at the weekend with his family at his bedside.
