Overview

• Chichester goalkeeper Kieran Magee said Vigar’s collision with a concrete perimeter wall was “an absolute freak accident” and that players were left traumatised.
• The 21-year-old received on-pitch care, was airlifted to hospital, placed in a coma and underwent brain surgery before dying on Thursday.
• The FA confirmed an immediate review of perimeter walls and pitch boundaries at non-league grounds.
• A GoFundMe organized by Chichester teammates passed £8,000 to support Vigar’s family and a lasting legacy.
• Wingate & Finchley postponed two home fixtures, thanked the FA and PFA for their support, and a petition to ban brick pitchside walls gained backing from Dorking owner Marc White.
