I can see it being a very somber derby game. Dale's death has hit the local footballing community in Northants hard and a lot of people either knew Dale or like me know people who knew him well.

RIP Dale.

Top man. That would be quality.

See you Boxing Day.

Just had a lovely email form Holkerbird a Barrow fan who sends us commiserations, it really seems to have affected the whole of the football community

Another Barrow Fan here.

May I pass condolences to All connected to R&DFC and his friends and Family.
Its times like this where regardless of colour of shirt or name on badge we all come together as FOOTBALL fans!!!!
Horrible news and it effects everyone who follows a football club. I have got in touch with our club and at our home fixture against wrexham on the 28th december we are holding a bucket collection to go to the family of dale roberts. I know money wont go anywhere near to repair the damage this loss will cause but its just to show our support and show that we at barrow are thinking of his family at this tragic time.

Rest in Peace Dale
