The very first signing of Jono Way's
managerial reign at Hampsthwaite and now Club Captain,
Okopskyj has it all.
A tough tackling, no-nonsense centre-half,
'Del' gets the job done.
Capable of making tackles more
impossible to pronounce than his surname, Jono Way knew
exactly what he was taking on when obtaining Okopskyj's
signature.
An absolute rock in defence and
organiser of the team around him, the obvious choice to
succeed Way as Captain in 03/04 due to his popularity and
respect from the players.
More injury prone than a one-legged
footballer, 'Del' is usually expected to pick up at least 2
injuries a year and on top of that is substituted with 'cramp'
on average, once a month!
However, when available, is the heart
& soul of the United Defence
