Quoted from sydney
Got the goal at Fulham away in the playoffs that famous year


Debut goal against Brentford was alright, too (about 20 secs in). Didn't remember the pitch being that bad back in '98 though; the state of it.

Dave is a thoroughly decent and nice person. Carried himself so well as a professional at GTFC in every role he fulfilled.

I loved watching him as a player, and enjoyed dealing with Dave in his commercial capacity, as far back as when he took up the role working with Tony Richardson. Always found him very professional, but better than that, a smashing person to have a conversation with.

He was also very good to me when I commenced the women’s football project, very supportive and did his best for the women’s team with things like getting hold of kit and training kit, which made them feel a big part of the club and valued.

Glad to have been able do some business with Dave, and I wish him all the very best for the future, with whatever he goes onto next.

All the best Smudge

Sad to see Dave go but yet another legacy of the previous regime. I understand that another, perhaps less surprising, change has also taken place.


oooh, do tell us more (or give me a pm if you can't reveal it publicly!)

John Fenty has had a sex change. Be careful if you’re out in meggies at the weekend and happen to bump into a girl named ‘Joanne’ with a surprisingly large Adam’s apple and penchant for snooker and classlessly-implemented faux period interior design.

Whatever you do, don’t tickle her pink.

Dave was always a great host on the odd occasions i've ended up in McMenemy's for hospitality, and i'd usually make the effort to arrive early enough to join the behind the scenes pre-match tour he led each matchday. Just seemed a really nice guy and it was great hearing some anecdotes from his playing days as he led us around Blundell Park.

Let’s not forget the voluntary things he also did such as cycling to raise money for the YDA. Didn’t know him, ruffled his hair (possibly) in an over exuberant celebration v tranmere and heard some good, and some very negative things but, wish nothing more than the best for him and his family in the future

Least they already have an extensive collection of roll necks to cover said Adam’s apple…

Top guy and will be missed at the club by many I’m sure.  Had many dealings with Dave over the years and was always professional, helpful and friendly.
Wishing him all the best.
