I remember reading a feature on him in Hammers News nearly 20 years ago, great player and person from what I remember reading.

One of my favourite players as a youngster - saw him play many times. And one of the 7 "B"s in the '64 Cup Final team.

R.I.P Peter.

Remember him presenting our end of season trophies when I was a kid playing for Collier Row Juniors. A perfect gent, took time signing autographs and happy to mingle with the Dads at the bar.

Genuinely gutted at Peter Brabrook's passing.

I used to sit near Peter on a regular basis. As a young un' I was a STH at Billericay Town and he spent most of his time in the stand with us after having been sent from the dugout! I remember him as a bloody nice fella who was very modest with it. He was a big part in making Billericay a serious non-league side in the early 90's and recommended Steve Jones to West Ham iirc.

RIP Peter.
