He was playing at a time when I followed Palace everywhere... He didn't have much technically but his work rate and tenacity was second to none.... He was certainly never one to shy out of a 50/50 tackle!! Very sad indeed... RIP Darren.
Don't waste your time with jealousy. Sometimes your ahead, sometimes your behind, the race is long. But in the end it's only with yourself!! |

Very sad news and so young too.. always thought what a great team player Darren was who gave 100% every time he put on the Red and Blue.. was there to see his amazing goal in the FA Cup replay against Wolves.. will never be forgotten by the Palace faithful, RIP and condolences to Darrens family

Very sad news and so young. He was always a player you would rather play with than against. A real workhorse and a good player for us. Wolves goal will always be remembered but he did so much more. RIP
Some people are like Slinkies … not really good for anything, but you can’t help smiling when you see one tumble down the stairs. |

Don't want to seem too morbid but I've been compiling a little piece about Darren and there is no info anywhere that I can detect that gives the cause of death. Can anyone shed any light please? If so, many thanks. Edited by Jamesey (27 Nov 2018 11.46pm)

Edited by Jamesey (27 Nov 2018 11.46pm) Jamesey I genuinely have No idea and of course don't expect you to use it but generally, given the lack of detail it usually ends up being suicide, especially given his young age... Of course I hope I'm wrong but I'm sure it will come out.

Blimey. He was a real throwback footballer. You don't get them in today's game. You can't tackle like that any more. My goodness did he have a savage tackle. Thanks for the memories and RIP. For anyone too young to remember that Wolves game: [Link] It was pure magic! Edited by Frickin Saweet (28 Nov 2018 9.56am)

If there was no illness it would simply be waiting the results of a post mortem
