In the face of such devastating news I would like to register my appreciation for having known Dave and all he did for Tunbridge Wells FC.
Memories may be sketchy but I first remember Dave when His son Steve was playing for the Wells several years ago. It is not unusual for players dads to come and watch and sometimes they get involved. However Dave caught the Wells bug and stayed with the club contributing more and more long after Steve had moved on. His dedication to the cause was unquestionnable and he remained loyal through changes to committee, chair, management etc. A genuine supporter and contributor if ever there was one.
If you hadn't been to Culverden Stadium for a while Dave had one of the faces that lit up in a big smile and translated in to a warm greeting as soon as he saw you again. It is this that I shall always remember as well as his tremendous enthusiasm for the things he did.
Thanks Dave for all you did and all you were. My sympathies go out to the Knell family and my thoughts are with you at this time.
One Dave Knell, there's only one Dave Knell....!
