RIP Gerry Dawson 15:49 - May 12 with 3256 views | TVOS1907 | Sad news that Dale fan and matchday commissionaire Gerry Dawson has died today. Any fans who used to go into the reception/main stand area at home matches will know Gerry as one of the chaps at the bottom of the stairs. A real stalwart who could always be guaranteed to be there every game and with a welcoming smile and handshake for everyone, especially directors and guests from visiting clubs. | |
| When I was your age, I used to enjoy the odd game of tennis. Or was it golf? |

RIP Gerry Dawson on 16:14 - May 13 with 608 views | 100569 | Like others on here, I too have known Gerry for over 40 years. Also like a previous poster, he took me under his wing when I first started work from school, prior to entering my chosen career. I cant speak highly enough of him. I was deeply upset when I read it first on the OS. I echo every sentiment posted on here and it just shows what a great guy he was and he will be missed by so many in the football world and beyond. I just hope that his family see this thread to read what he meant to so many people. My deepest condolences to his family. Gerry, I`ll miss you. Rest in Peace mate. | | | |
