'Larger than life' Aberdeen fan dies suddenly as fellow supporters pay touching tribute
Tributes have flooded in for a 'larger than life' Aberdeen fan who who helped to found the club's first ultras group.
He said: "Dave was my best mate since we were in our mid-teens and he was a big, larger than life character - the life and soul of the party. "I started the Red Ultras back in 1999 and Dave was very helpful with me for getting it off the ground, organising fundraisers and band nights so we could do the tifos."
"He came out for a few beers with Dave and I and some of the lads. Boavista were formed in 1903, just like Aberdeen and a friendship grew in the pubs in Aberdeen. Then the Boavista ultras, who were called the Panteras Negras, invited us over to cement the friendship. "He became a legend within the Boavista support." The Red Ultras disbanded in 2011 but Dave continued to attend matches when work commitments allowed.
