David is still often in my thoughts and I prey every night that he makes a full recovery. A lovely guy who would harm no 1 hope to see you well again soon David.

Indeed, same here including alot of people outside of RL too!

I know Dave is a Town fan and a Fax Fan.Maybe both sets of fans could look to organize an annual game of 11 a side soccer and help both sets of fans support each other? Glad to see Dave recovering but also know from experience that it will be a long road that will be tough for him , his family and friends.

Thanks for the updates. I can't wait for the one that says he is going home. God bless Dave, we are all rooting for you.

David's condition is improving. Signs are good but will be a long road to recovery. He is however progressing if only slowly. He has now been able to write his name but is not yet on solid food. He has now had the traciotamy(spelling?) taken out. Matt and some of the players are taking the trophy over to Leeds so I am sure that will give him an extra boost and aid his recovery.

That indeed is good news, Keep it up David, everyone is wishing you well.

Thanks for the News Neil,

I am so pleased to hear this good news. Thanks for the update and best wishes.

Lets hope that seeing the trophy can give him the boost he needs to keep improving.

Small steps but great to hear, im sure once he's home the fax family will look after him.

Any more recent updates?

RB and everyone as of last week Dave has shown some improvement in as much as he is saying the odd word or two but not very often.
He is switching chanels on the tv but it is unclear how much he is aware of what he is actualy doing.

Terry Wainman who is close friends of David and myself showed Dave the photo that was featured in the Courier a week or so back when they were walking in the Scottish Highlands together.

Dave took the photo and was really looking at it but there was not much expression on his face but he did seem to be aware of who and what it was but it is still early days yet and it is very difficult and sensitive to put into words.

At the moment all everyone can do is hope for the best and not dwell on the worst scenario.

I will be seeing Dave hopefully next weekend and will post back.

Thanks again for all your support and best wishes.

Cheers pal, one of last times I seen Dave we were on about doing 3 Yorkshire peaks but it never happened.

Thanks for the update.

Little tiny steps are better than no steps at all. Thanks for the updates, I'm sure I'm not the only one that still holds this man in my thoughts despite never meeting him.

This is a long slog as we were warned and shows the severity of Dave's injuries and sorry to say the attack.
We must not forget this and more importantly Dave and his future.
We long for the day when Dave hopefully can be fully aware of everything around him and feeling better.
