Ex-goalkeeper found dead 21/ 6/2008  FORMER Sunderland Football Club goalkeeper Tim Carter has been found dead. The ex-Black Cats shot stopper was reported missing from his home in Durham early on Thursday morning. His body was discovered in bushes by a passer-by in Manchester just after noon on Thursday. A source confirmed he was found with rope around his neck and it is believed he hanged himself. Today a spokesman for Greater Manchester Police said: "Shortly after 12pm on Thursday 19 June police were called to Highfield Close in Stretford following reports of a body found. "Officers attended and found the body of a 40-year-old man. "There are not believed to be any suspicious circumstances." Mr Carter, who was recently appointed as Sunderland's academy goalkeeping coach, was pronounced dead at the scene. Post-mortem A file has been passed to the coroner and a post-mortem examination will take place next week. Mr Carter played 50 games for the Premiership club between 1987 and 1992. He was the first-team goalkeeping coach before the arrival of ex-Manchester Utd star Raimond Van Der Gouw last summer. He also coached Estonia's national team goalkeepers on a part-time basis. He was capped three times with England's youth squad in 1985 and made his Football League debut for his local team Bristol Rovers at just 18. He joined Sunderland on Christmas Eve in 1987. He also appeared for Newport, Carlisle, Birmingham, Hartlepool, Millwall, Blackpool and Oxford before going into coaching. Mr Carter ended his playing days in 1999 at Halifax Town. Today a spokesman for Sunderland FC declined to comment. Manchester Evening News |
