Our sympathies go out to Linda, John, Neil and Tom. Daisy was a REAL Falcons fan and had been supporting the team for over 50 years. She and her family hardly ever missed a meeting at the County Ground, and were regulars at the all Supporters Club meetings, as well as sponsoring riders fuel and oil for many seasons. Daisy will be much missed by as all. RIP.

I happened to bump into John Friday afternoon with Neil and said hiya to John and wasnt aware--with tears in his eyes he said Mum died on Weds he was choked up and couldnt say anymore RIP Daisy-A true true fan and Falcon legend-and the family should rightly be so so proud of her and am sure she will be looking down from above when we fly again. Thoughts and condolences go out to you all. John and Craig x

Didn't know the family personally, but I recall chatting to the lady most weeks at the back of the grandstand on our way in or out. She was always so enthusiastic and bubbly. One of the County Ground characters definitely.
