Dave has done a tremendous amount of good works for his adopted home town as an ex-mariner and as a councillor too. I am sure he will keep fighting just as he did In the midfield on BP for so many games.

Thank you, it’s just such a pity I had to.

Top man, speak to him regularly on the prom when he's walking his dog.

Take care Dave mate.

One of my big heroes watching Town years ago. Good and big things come in small packages.

He has given so much to the Club - on and off the pitch - for around 50 years. Such loyalty is very rare these days.S

Say what you like about the town but a lot of ex players continue to live around here. Boylen, Macca, Gallimore come to my mind first.

I always remember back in our Division 1 days, he used to gee up all 4 corners of the ground with a 1, 2, 3 Wahey!

Sad to read this in the GrimTel. Top bloke who has given a lot to GTFC and the wider community.

If you’ve had experience of dementia in a loved one, you know how difficult it’s going to be for Dave’s family.

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.

Very sad for Dave and his family, he gave a lot to the club. Lost my mum to it last year. I am contributing to a long term PROTECT study on it as my way of contributing to research with myself as the laboratory animal.


Sorry to hear about your mother Rob. It must have been very difficult.

This PROTECT study sounds intriguing. Could you tell us more/share any links?

Thanks spud. Just signed up.

I can’t remember what I signed up for but where’s the cat?

You know you're getting old when you see players of old lapse into old age related health issues. Too many to list down the years.

Legend is a word that's bandied about readily nowadays to no end of folk, but to me Davie Boylen is an undisputed Town legend. Take care, Davie.


No attempt at ethical or social seduction can eradicate from my heart a deep burning hatred of the Tory party. So far as I'm concerned they're lower than vermin. Aneurin Bevan.
