Roger Robson died peacefully after battling an illness for 25 years. Mr Robson was involved with Cumberland and Westmorland wrestling for almost 70 years. Roger was steeped in the sport with a father and uncles who all competed. As a competitor himself, he was a true gentleman, always taking a fair hold and never seeking to gain an unfair advantage, said Chris Bland, president of the Cumberland and Westmorland Wrestling Association. He will be sorely missed and we give thanks for all that he has contributed to our sport during a lifetime of involvement. Thank you, Roger and Jill. Although he never held a championship title, Mr Robson won the Guinness trophy for best performance at Grasmere Sports in 1964 – when he was champion in the 12-stone category.
