So good to hear that the lad is recovering and I hope he regains full fitness. Still can't believe this happened.

I sincerely hope that he is soon in a position to be back watching this team again.

I second that. Unbelievable that this has happened and I wish him the best of luck and health.

Has there been any more news in the Cheshire press with regards to further arrests/ investigations?

Still pretty shook up by this incident and i hope and pray the poor lad makes a full recovery or as near to it as possible.

Thanks to all for the updates on his condition.

Just spotted this on the Courier website.

And can I just say it's good to hear the news about Dave, and thankyou for the updates.

More today in the Warrington Guardianhttps://www.warringtonguardian.co.uk/news/8474783.Second_man_arrested_over_rugby_attack/rl

Best wishes to Dave and his family. He remains in our thoughts.

Thanks for that Taxman...I for one can only hope for a speedy recovery for Dave...I'm so glad I came on here today..thanks again for the update as this is always on my mind..

I am so pleased to hear of the small improvement in Dave. There is not a day goes by when I do not think of him. Thanks for the updates.

Thanks for the update. Separated by the pennines but united by the love of the game all Warrington fans are routing for Dave.

Local media coverage in Warrington has been limited. Information is that it is not the case that this has been forgotten (far from it!!) but that the media are only releasing information as the police want it to be released for legal reasons and that the police will not say too much for operational reasons.

What about a pre-season friendly between Fax and Warrington at the Shay, all fans could come along and show their support for Dave and proceeds from the game go to Dave and his family.

Officials of both clubs, please get this sorted if at all possible. Let's start the ball rolling.

Why not a friendly between Fax and Featherstone?

Following on from Neils update i have just this minute being speaking to Dave's dad Ronnie and they are waiting to find out when Dave will be moved to Leeds.
It was scheduled for yesterday just after dinner but was postponed due to oxygen and ambulance issues and it has been rescheduled for sometime today.
The medical staff did not want to leave anything to chance and sums up their magnificent support and care they have given from day one.
Dave is concious and there is eye movement he has been shown rugby and football literature and he follows the pages and is aware of what is going on around him in the ward.
It is impossible to say however what David is taking in and further specialist treatment is scheduled at the medical teams disscretion.
There has been attempts to converse further with him but he has been unable to reply at the moment.
Ronnie and Anne remain strong and positive.
The family have been supported by close friends, officialls at HRLFC and takes great comfort from the many well wishes from the Halifax rugby and football fan base and from many other clubs.

Many thanks.

the second one


A man held over the attack on Fax fan David Singer has been bailed.

The 29-year-old, from Pontefract, was questioned on suspicion of assault yesterday after his arrest in the early hours of Tuesday.

Mr Singer, 32, is still in a critical but stable condition in hospital.
