Some really bad news

[selby]

  I have just had a PM from Dave known on here to many as The Vicar telling me he has inoperable Pancreatic cancer and is quite ill.
  Not good news but I thought a number of people who post on here and are friends and acquaintances of Dave would probably like to get in touch with him at this bad time for him and his family.
  A really committed Rovers and Dons fan who loved the games  and has been a fan of both all his life travelling all over the country supporting the teams and being a good player himself when younger it has shocked me to the core.
