Russ Doffman says her father Joe Kinnear was 'let down' by the football authorities over the risk of dementia.
The late Newcastle and Wimbledon manager's family are among a number of claimants taking legal action against some of the sport's governing bodies over brain injuries suffered during their careers.
Doffmen says the Kinnear family have joined the lawsuit to get “justice for players, and to try to get some help for those still around”.
The players or their families involved in the litigation initiated their legal claim two years ago .
It also includes the family of 1966 World Cup winner Nobby Stiles , who died in 2020 , and had prostate cancer and advanced dementia.
His brain was diagnosed as having chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) - a form of dementia that is believed to be caused by repeated blows.
