Dale Anderson Obituary, Death – The attacker was known for his mazy runs and his ability to turn defenders inside out and outside in with his dribbling talents, which made him a crowd favorite at Eton Park in the early years of Nigel Clough’s tenure as manager. Anderson, who was born in 1979, was a crucial acquisition for Clough at the beginning of his first full season in command, which began in August 1999.

Anderson maintained his career with the Brewers in the Conference despite experiencing setbacks due to injury at various points. In 2006, he participated in both of the Brewers’ FA Cup Third Round matches against the formidable Manchester United. In both of the games, he came on as a substitute in the final 10 minutes. However, at Old Trafford, he played for more than an hour when Jon Shaw was hurt and had to leave the game.

But that was to be his only significant contribution for the Brewers before he moved on to other teams, first on loan to Northwich and then to Moor Green, and finally securing a permanent contract with Moor Green in the summer of 2006. “It was a massive shock to the club to hear that Dale had passed away,” Brewers Chairman Ben Robinson stated after the news was announced.

“He is a significant player in the history of the club, having scored a number of goals that will live long in the memory of fans and playing a pivotal part in our first ever league championship under the direction of Nigel Clough.The striker’s place in the hearts of Brewers fans was firmly entrenched when he scored key goals in the 2001-2002 season when Albion won the Northern Premier League to win promotion to the Football League Premier Division.
