I can't recall speaking to any Villa fan that didn't like Dalian.  Says it all really.

I saw a clip on the news last night linking Dalian's tragic death to the ongoing enquiry about alleged wrongdoing at the Manchester forensic evidence testing laboratory.  Has anything more been reported?

The S*n had a report on it yesterday.

Illustrated of course, with a picture of Leandro Bacuna.

I wonder what the link can be?  Dalian's post mortem?  Very curious.

No missing body cams, they weren’t wearing them. Which at the time, rightly or wrongly, was standard for West Mercia
The officers remain suspended.

God bless Dalian, thanks for the memories.

Had any more been said about the mysterious circumstances around his death? It all seems to have gone away and it’s been a year now.

While in the Holte against Wolves and admiring the Ugo banner in the corner, I couldn't help thinking that there was enough room for one of Dalian (and maybe GT) too.

There is one for both of them on the wall at the back of the Lower Holte.
