Dave has been suffering from Dementia and Alzheimers for a while, top bloke Dave. I would give him a lift to the home games, when I saw him waiting for the bus, he would chat away about football. Would frequently see Dave down the Ave and seafront, always had to talk to anyone about football and Grimsby. He did alot of charity work and help bring back ex players to Blundell Park. Hope he and his lovely wife and family, get all the help and support they need. A true Grimsby legend and a gentlemen. UTMM

When you’ve got a Town legend in poor health, it puts everything into perspective Get well soon Dave. Rose is on fire And your scotch eggs are fu(king vile

I am sure he will keep fighting just as he did In the midfield on BP for so many games. “If all mankind minus one, were of one opinion, and only one person were of the contrary opinion, mankind would be no more justified in silencing that one person, than he, if he had the power, would be justified in silencing mankind.” ― John Stuart Mill, On Liberty."

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

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

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!

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. 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.

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.
