A Stoke City fan has said it was "amazing" to have been identified in a picture alongside his late brother and father in a BBC online article.

Martin Wild said it had been "quite a shock" but also "fantastic" to see the image of the family attending a football match in 1992, when he was aged five.

His older brother Lee died of an aggressive brain tumour aged 36 in April 2020. Four days later he lost his father Andy, 57, following a diagnosis of motor neurone disease.

"It's the first time I've ever seen the picture so it was quite a shock and it brought back a lot of emotions," he said.
