It is with heavy hearts that we must share the news of Charlie Strutton's passing at the young age of 34. Charlie, a former AFC Wimbledon footballer, was well-loved by fans and teammates alike. He made a name for himself during his time at Wimbledon from 2012-2014, after a successful six-year run at Chalfont St Peter where he scored an impressive 81 goals in 125 games.
Throughout his career, Charlie also played for other teams such as Maidenhead, Braintree, Aldershot, Hayes & Yeading, and Slough Town. However, he eventually returned to his roots in Buckinghamshire and retired from the sport in 2016. His talent and passion for the game will never be forgotten.
