I WOULD like to take this opportunity to thank David Dunn and his girlfriend, Sam, for their kindness and generosity.

They recently spent a couple of hours with me, and the children could not believe their eyes when they walked through the door.

After many photographs together and signing of autographs, we spent over an hour talking like they were part of the family.

He is a son any parent would be proud of. So forget the "playboy image" and let him get fit and let him prove his love for the people of Blackburn once again.
