I logged on here this morning with every intention of going on a rant about how far Town have sunk, instead I saw this and my anger over a stupid game of football has gone.

Shankley was so far off the mark it's unreal.  I didn't even know this poor lad, aside from reading his posts on here, but I feel as if someone's just chucked a bowling ball down my throat.  

Deepest of sympathies to his family.

RIP.

I had the honour of meeting Matty and his parents last week.  Both showed tremendous strength in the face of what, to many, are truly unimaginable circumstances.

After spending just under an hour with him, it was clear that he was one of Town’s most passionate, knowledgeable and dedicated fans. The bravery and fortitude that he showed, despite his illness, was remarkable.

My thoughts go out to his family and all his friends at this time,

Rest in peace Matty

Words cannot describe how I'm feeling right now, how we're all feeling right now, and my thoughts go out to your family. I am exremely proud to call you my friend and someone who I could share my problems with as you shared yours with me. Sitting, on the most part next to you at home games l was fit enough to attend taught me that no matter how how bad you think your own problems are, there is always some who has it worse and is dealing with it better. Matty Dawson you inspired me to get back on my feet and walk without help. There is not alot else I can say except you are a great guy and fantastic mate, also some divine intervention this season may be of use.


With Love and Respect

What a loss.
I knew Matty personally and can't say how gutted I am.
He was a true fan, you see these plastic premiershite fans, compare them to Matty, they are nothing.
Will always be in my heart and will never be forgotten Matty
RIP buddy
