The heartbroken fiancée of a football scout who died during a climb in the Lake District has described him as being "the best person in the whole world".
Karl Newton had just began his dream job as a technical recruitment analyst at Blackburn Rovers. The 37-year-old had previously worked for Stockport County, Sheffield Wednesday, Middlesbrough, Leyton Orient and AFC Fylde.
Karl, who had also spent time at South Shields FC and Newcastle City Juniors FC, was climbing Pavey Ark in the Lake District with friends on Friday. While he was near the summit, he lost his footing and fell.
