The turtle post was my doing 😝 Daniel left his phone lying around unlocked so I started posting facts about turtles on his Facebook for my own amusement. After about of month of this, someone Dan worked with gave a small stuffed turtle because she thought he liked them so much 😂  That Christmas every present I gave Dan had turtles on them 🤣🤣🤣

Rivalry and banter aside...So sorry to hear this. B4 was a true fan who wore his heart on his sleeve.
Sending our condolences to his family and all his friends and those that knew him on here too.
You're all in our thoughts during this sad time.
Rest in peace B4.
From  the NFFC fans on the LTLF forum. 
 
 

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 ❤️

My grandad fought for the right for health and safety officers to be able to enforce regulations. 

First and foremost, my thoughts are with Daniel's friends and family, I cannot imagine what they are going through right now.
I heard the news last night and it came as a huge shock, B4 as we knew him so fondly by will be a huge loss to the forum.
He was Mr Positivity, Derby County's biggest cheerleader, even during the bad times his positivity would shine through.
I know his Dad was at the game today with a scarf on his seat, whilst we haven't closed the gap on Portsmouth in Daniel's final rallying call on this forum, I'm sure he will be over the moon with the 3 goals and 3 points today.
DCFC Fans will be honouring Daniel in time to ensure he remains in our memories, we will also be contacting the club in due course to see what can be done during a game.
Suggestions are welcomed as we all come to terms with the loss.
Rest in peace Daniel. ❤️🐏

I have some very sad news this evening.  Daniel (B4) died earlier this week. He was just 38.
As you know, he has been battling numerous health conditions for a long time, but always remained cheerful  and was the most loyal supporter of his beloved Rams, home and away.
He was at the match at Crewe and gave his full support as always. 
Daniel leaves behind a grieving dad, mum and sister. Our thoughts go out to them and we only hope they get a little comfort from knowing how well loved Daniel is by all who know him. 
Here are a couple of photos that his dad agreed could be shared. I'm sure many of you have others, as Daniel loved a selfie at the game.
David is hoping to arrange a more fitting tribute in time, but for now please raise a glass in his memory and a good Derby win today. I am sure that's what Daniel would have been doing tonight.
 

You willing to sort me finishing work earlier and get a babysitter for me to go watch these meaningless games Mr Number 1 Fan?

He might not be good for Derby, he might not play the football we all crave, he may not lead us to promotion but to describe him as “a disgrace to this football club” is frankly, a disgraceful thing to say IMO.

So sad to hear that death of the man who brought me to Derby County. 
Rest  well Franny thanks for the memories 

I wish we'd gone bust.

Convinced the football gods hate us. When will the pain end.
Leeds better go down. There must be some consolation.

What a comeback, oddly enough I thought they would do it.
I hope they go up now, especially for Moore. Not bothered what they sang at a match, we would do the exact same thing.
Good luck Owls!

Peter Swann got banned for accepting a bribe and throwing a match not betting on games he wasn’t involved in don’t think that’s a fair comparison. I’m not condoning Toney he was a fool,but you get less of a ban for attacking a referee 

What a comeback, oddly enough I thought they would do it.

What a game. What a league. Absolutely fantastic, really pleased for Darren Moore

Blackpool, Around 5 years ago for 5 days, I never knew then that it's alleged to be the drug capital of the north, Where benefit claimants top up the drugs culture, There's a paved area not far from the North Pier where jokes and sayings are painted on the paving's, There was some sort of an emergency there so I mooched over to have a nosey, They were dragging a body out of the water, I heard later it was drug related as this is a common occurrence, Every bus stop and litter bin there was someone sitting against them begging, In the back street just off the main road police were arresting a shoplifter, Another day a young lad was screaming for him mum, Apparently she'd got in a taxi and left him there on his own, Mums and Dads with 8-10 kids effing and blinding at each other, Stag/Hen do's galore, Fights involving both men and women, Gutters used as toilets by both sexes, Crap gifts sold as genuinely made in Taiwan, Chavs and Chevets, Guest house after guest house boarded up or for sale.
I've booked again for 5 days in August 😁    

I’ll go travel UK this August! Travel period is 3rd August ~ 14th August. Hopefully I can watch Derby games in Championship level😉
