The wife of a dad-of-five Forest fan who died on his way home from a game at the City Ground last month says he was a "perfect all rounder" who lived for his family. Paul Jenner, 61, had watched Nottingham Forest in the Carabao Cup semi-final first leg against Manchester United on the evening of January 25 and was driving back to his home in Stamford.
But after having only been driving for around five minutes, Paul Jenner's van stopped on Davies Road in West Bridgford and a passer-by spotted him at the wheel, initially believing he had fallen asleep. Alison Jenner, 54, who had been married to Paul for 32 years, said: "The person who saw Paul went round the other side of the van and pipped the horn, but Paul just didn't move."
Several people stopped to try and help Paul, including a prison officer who performed CPR, and paramedics soon arrived. Despite the best efforts of those who stopped to help and the emergency services, Paul was eventually pronounced dead and Alison received a call from police at around 12.15.
