Hi all, Chelmsford fan here. Apologies if this is the wrong place to post this, but on our forum we've heard that Ansah Owusu has passed away. Was only at Bristol Rovers on loan for a few months in 2001, but played the most football in his career with you. Made nine league appearances for us in the Southern League, scoring once. |

Hi sarfas, terrible news if true. 42 is no age at all.
I do remember Ansah's name, but sadly can't remember much more about him.
Thoughts go with his family and friends. Rest In Peace.

He would of been about 21 when he was with us.
We struggled big time after selling Cureton & Roberts, we signed Micky Evans, Rune Johansen, Mousa Dagnogo, Clinton Ellis, Justin Richards, Kevin Gall, Christian Lee and Ansah Owusu on loan in the 2000/01 season and were relegated.

I do recall him vaguely, I managed to find a photo for others to remember hopefully. It is so sad when someone loses their life at such a tender age with so much of their life remaining, condolences to Ansah’s family and friends who must be in terrible pain at this time. Rest in Peace.  |

Seemed to recall the ref ringing up Garry Thompson to apologise saying he watched the game on the Sunday highlights and yeah it was a sending off but he missed it. This was the season when a similar thing happened to the Duke at Bury, Foran's header was about a foot over the line v Port Vale and Kevin Gall was one on one with the keeper v Wycombe? and was taken out knee high by the last man and again the ref gave play on. We got relegated by 2pts. When the footballing gods are against you, you have no chance RIP Ansah |

We had stock as a decent league 1 side then and the induction to the circle of sh** began that year. RIP, can’t remember him but all gas family are family, end of. |

The big thing I remember from that season was dropping 2 points at home to Bristol City when Scott Jones had his injury time penalty saved by.... Steve Phillips Then we walked up Wellington hill after the game to find my mate's car had been clamped. I guess that was the last time we played Bristol City in the league. |

It also proves how bloody good Roberts & Cureton were. It was pretty much the same team bar those 2, with Ellington, Walters, The Latvian, Mauge, Foster, Thompson, Challis, pethick etc yet within 18 months of selling both strikers we were 2nd from bottom of the entire Football league |

No one can confirm his death not even Ivan Ponting who writes the football obits for a National newspaper.
