Rushden & Diamond's 24-year-old England 'C' goalkeeper Dale Roberts passed away earlier today, reportedly from a car accident.
Absolute tragedy. So young, and it seemed like he had a real connection with the fans at Rushden. So much potential.

RIP.

The unfortunate details of Dale's death have been released, and it turns out that he committed suicide in his Northamptonshire home last night. Paul Terry, John's older brother, reportidely had an affair with his fiancée. Absolute scum of the earth - just like his brother.

Well as you said reportedly, there's no need to jump to conclusions.
RIP, I always remember the year we got drawn Rushden in the FA Cup, and took a liking to them ever since.

He did though, Roberts said that his fiancée admitted it to him. I stand by my statement.

Rushden and Diamonds are our much-hated local rivals, but even after just under a week, the effect of his death is still being felt throughout our club and across the county.
Rivalries mean nothing in times like this.
R.I.P Dale.

Very very sad, to take your own life at the age of 24 :(

RIP

Pretty old thread, but we played Rushden on Monday, our local derby.
700 of our own fans chanting "there's only one Dale Roberts" during the minutes applause puts everything into perspective really.

RIP
He was born not far from Sunderland and trained with our youth team for a while.
Really a shame to see people die at such a young age, especially when they take their own life.
