National League Side Woking FC Raising Funds for Player Injury Forces Retirement at Just 28

National League side Woking FC are attempting to raise funds for midfielder Damon Lathrope, who has been forced to retire at the age of 28 after a devastating injury that saw him suffer "life-changing damage to a number of major arteries and veins."

The player, who had only made four appearances for his new side since his move from Torquay United in January, broke his leg whilst playing against Borehamwood on February 24. And rather unfortunately, he won't be able to ever suit up again.

Update on Damon Lathrope: Damon suffered a badly broken leg during our game against Boreham Wood.
