I have to admit after finally seeing the face behind the flanges this has brought a tear to my eye ..........very sad news indeed .The forum wont be the same without him .
TRULY WILL BE MISSED .
Never met him or knew him but his posts always made me smile .

Seeing that shirt made me emotional. Losing B4 is still hard to understand. 😢

@B4’s Sister

Until the last week it has been a long time since I had been at a Derby Match. My Dad has said I’ve probably seen some of the best football so far this season. So, this thread is starting with genuine positivity from me, as my brother Daniel (B4) would also have done. This match means so much more to the Beavis family than any result. We want everyone to wave their scraves and flanges (not literally, ladies 🙈) and raise the roof for both DCFC and Daniel. Please share the details of the applause far and wide. 
I’m reliably told I need to predict a 3-0 win to Derby. 
My dad, Andy and I, will be in the east stand, stairway 35. We’ll be having a drink before the match and at halftime. Please do come and say hello.

I had been thinking I should post ahead of the Bristol match. Does anyone know if you can get a large B printed in the the number section of a DCFC shirt? I was thinking of getting Daniel B4 printed on a shirt this week. My parents gave me one of Dan’s shirts and I’ve have worn it for a couple of matches but I wanted to make sure it doesn’t get too worn or damaged. 

I think the permanent reminder on this thread, and his dedicated spot, with @Mucker1884's poem elsewhere on the forum is a perfect balance. 
Well done @David, fitting and appropriate. 

Thank you. He was on his feet the whole time x 

Oh my goodness, what a response!
Hello everyone, I’m Claire, Daniel’s (B4) sister. I am overwhelmed by your kind words, support, and the memories you have shared.  Thank you so much for the kindness and love you have all shown to Daniel over the years. My parents are working their way through all of the posts and will offer their own thanks in due course.
I wish I knew about the scraves, flanges and ballions before now. I wouldn’t have let Daniel live that down at home. This made my husband and I laugh this morning.
I will be wearing Daniel’s shirt and keeping his seat warm at the Bristol match. Really looking forward to hearing a big cheer and round of applause in the 38th minute, a goal at the time would be perfect!  Do please continue to share the picture with details of the applause. Let’s raise the roof for Daniel!!!
Thank you all again ❤️

Crushed to hear this terrible news. My heart goes for the family of Daniel. So often he lifted my spirits and made me smile. He was the  of a SUPPORTER. You will be missed. 
RIP B4 - Daniel

I noticed that I missed a word on my post. I meant to say about B4 that he was the epitome of a SUPPORTER. I guess B4 if anyone will understand me making a mistake while emotional.

Andy, who is Daniel's dad, has just rung me to say that he has started to read through all your wonderful messages today. They have made him and Daniel's mum Lynne, cry and laugh in equal measure. 
Andy, Lynne, Daniel's sister Claire, their poodle Marley (Daniel was his butler!) and all the rest of the family are very grateful for the kind messages.
Regarding a tribute, they would prefer a round of applause on the 38th minute of the next home League game against Bristol Rovers on 25th November. There will be more friends and family who know Daniel there on that day, so it would seem more  appropriate than the cup replay this week.
 @David and @Owen87ITK, I  don't know if you can help organise this? And is it possible to have a photo on the big screen or is that not allowed? 
Andy has also asked me to share this photo of Daniel's seat yesterday, with a big thank you to all who came up to him to chat or offer condolences. He really appreciated it. 
 
 
 

B4's family will be devastated but what amazing tributes reading through this thread in full. I hope it brings them a little comfort

Just beautiful

I hope Warne can get in a couple of new players of his liking when the transfer window opens. After that we could go a long way forward.

Very sad news, the forum won't be the same without him 🙁

No, nothing yet. It really is very early days and I think they are just trying to understand their loss.
I will keep in touch and let everyone know what they decide to do.
