England star Adam Johnson joined fellow footballers today at the funeral of his friend, goalkeeper Dale Roberts. The 24-year-old Rushden and Diamonds player was found hanged at his home in Higham Ferrers, Rushden, Northamptonshire on December 14. Mr Roberts, who had played for the England C team after a promising start in youth football, grew up with Mr Johnson in the former pit village of Horden, County Durham. The two boys were school friends and their families went on holiday together. Both played academy football for Middlesbrough, before Mr Roberts signed for Nottingham Forest.
