Groom-to-be killed in horror e-scooter crash just 48 hours before his wedding
Scott Catton, 54, collided with a car door that suddenly swung open and was rushed to hospital - but tragically succumbed to his injuries just two days before his wedding A groom-to-be was killed in a devastating e-scooter crash just 48 hours before he was due to marry the love of his life. Scott Catton, 54, was riding through Top Valley, Nottingham, last Thursday (June 6) when he collided with a car door that suddenly swung open. He was rushed to Queen's Medical Centre with broken ribs and a severe brain bleed, but despite doctors' efforts, the father-of-one tragically died from his injuries on Saturday. Scott was set to marry his fiancée Debi on Monday and the couple had planned to fly off to Majorca for their honeymoon the following day. Instead, his family are now facing heartbreak and loss, as they rally around to raise funds for funeral costs and to support Debi and Scott's 13-year-old son. His brother in-law Philip Bates, 56, said: 'He was on his way home and on an electric scooter, someone opened a car door and he just hit it. He broke ribs, his collar bone and had a severe brain bleed. We went straight to the hospital where we spent most of the weekend. 'He was supposed to get married at Arnold Registry Office at 2pm yesterday. They were going to Majorca, they were supposed to fly out today. It's horrendous. It's never a good time, but this is the worst time though. He was the life and soul of the party, everyone loved him. 'He was a cheeky chap. He was massively into his sports and we both played football. He played for local teams, and played at veterans level. He loved his cricket and boxing. He went to Wembley to watch England and he recently went to watch the Eubank vs Benn fight. He was Nottingham Forest mad too. 'Because he wasn't married he's got money himself. To get it released is a long process, so the main aim is to pay for the funeral and take the strain off of his partner and give any money left over to his son. The main reason is to help his son out and give him something.' Philip has now set up a GoFundMe to help cover funeral costs and to set up a trust for retired-EON advisor Scott's son. In a statement, the family said: 'Today (Saturday the 7th of June) we had to say goodbye to a much loved friend, partner, father, uncle and brother. 'Scott had a traffic accident from which he didn't recover. I am trying to raise funds to give him the send off that he deserves any remaining funds will be put into trust for his 13 year old son he leaves behind. Funeral arrangements will be posted in due course. He was due to marry his partner on Monday 9th June. We are all in deep shock please find it in your hearts to help.' More than £5,700 has been raised so far towards a £7,500 target. In response, the family said: 'We are truly humbled and grateful for all your generosity. It just shows how loved Scott was. I will keep the fund raising going to help Scott's son. Massive thanks to everyone who has donated and a special thanks to the Park Tavern and the Oxford public house who are organising fundraising events.' Nottinghamshire Police said officers were investigating the incident but were unable to provide any more information at this stage.

Cyriel Dessers minimum Rangers transfer fee revealed as AEK set to spend big on statement signing
The Greeks mean business after takeover by Marios Iliopoulos but new Ibrox regime determined to turn a profit on Dessers Greek Giants AEK are preparing to push the boat out to land Rangers hitman Cyriel Dessers. The enigmatic Ibrox striker has blasted 51 goals in two years in Glasgow but remains a divisive figure among the Light Blue legions. Now Record Sport understands AEK are keen to offer him a fresh start in the Greek capital - and are willing to spend big. The Yellow and Blacks were taken over by shipping magnate Marios Iliopoulos last year and he's determined to make a statement signing this summer. They've identified Gers' 30-year-old Nigeria international as the man they want to spearhead their big push to recapture the Super League title they last won in 2023. But they will likely have to start the bidding at the £5million mark as Rangers' new American owners prepare to dig their heels in. The previous Ibrox regime spent £4.5million when they signed the former Feyenoord forward from Italian outfit Cremonese in 2023 and new sporting director Kevin Thelwell believes his record of scoring a goal-every-other game in Glasgow justifies a return on that investment. Dessers has been the subject of interest in recent windows, with his agent Stijn Franics revealing earlier this year that he had as many as TEN clubs sniffing about his signature in January. None could come up with the cash Gers were looking for and he stayed on to finish the campaign in Glasgow only one shy of the 30 mark. Selling Dessers would free up some fresh funds for new boss Russell Martin to spend. Andrew Cavenagh and his partners from the San Francisco 49ers have vowed to inject £20m of fresh funds into the Ibrox coffers, with CEO Patrick Stewart promising the new gaffer a 'decent amount' would be ring fenced for recruitment purposes. But Martin has been told he will have to move players on if he wants to raise additional funds for what is likely to be a considerable rebuild this summer. Record Sport broke the news last week that Leicester City defender Conor Coady could be the first new face in bolster Gers' backline. Ib Rox chiefs have already made contact with the Foxes as they look to kick off the Martin revolution with the experienced ex-England's capture. We also revealed how Rangers are in the hunt for £4 million-rated Israeli striker Dor Turgeman, who could be the man to replace Dessers. Talks with his club Maccabi Tel Aviv are on going as Rangers look to land the 21-year-old hit-man.
