Hi all its Carrie-Anne Boylen here (dave boylen's daughter) My dad is celebrating his 70th birthday at the ground this Saturday 28th October! I'm appealing to all you fans to join in and sing happy birthday to him. I've done a Facebook appeal and I've just sneaked onto his computer to appeal to the supporters on here. Come on GTFC fans help me make this happen for my dad on such a special birthday!

Some gesture in the 70 th minute. A chant or happy birthday being sung ?


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'

Davey Boylen surely, that's what he was always known as when he played for us anyway.

Known as Davey Boylen, bloody predictive text.


Gaffer.

Go to your original post. On the top right hand side it should give you the option to ‘modify’. Click on that and then amend as necessary.

Happy birthday Dave.

Davey Boylen: a legend. Part of that promotion winning squad under Laurie Mac that will forever stay in our minds. (Yeah i know he'd been around seasons before that). That squad is my generation's equivalent to the 2015-16 squad.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Many times I've sat next to Dave on the bus home after a game, listening to his Lawrie McMenemy stories  

Town through and through and a great guy.


When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

A GTFC treasure.

A pleasure to watch and a pleasure to meet. Not only GTFC through and through, but football through and through..

It's been a long time since your age in years has overtaken your height in inches..

Happy Birthday Dave

There was a presentation on the pitch before most of the fans had arrived or were still in the bar, Dave did a walk round with the Mayor and our nonchairman


I don't mind Roy Keane making £60,000 a week. I was making the same when I was playing. The only difference was I was printing my own - Mickey Thomas

The area you are trying to protect at corners is the goal - Chris Kamara

I once said Gazza's IQ was less than his shirt number and he asked me: What's an IQ? - George Best

Should have given Dave the mic, no one at the club has much of an idea when it comes to situations like this.

We all wished him the best and he knows it
