James Wall posted on Facebook,
“Goodnight and rest in peace to a former team mate. Funny lad from Walsall who had feet that were so good Fred Astaire would’ve been proud of. My memories aren’t his goals or dancing around defenders or even his sheer brilliance on Eton Park at training and in games.My memories of him are his smile, chuckle, playing cards with the lads on the bus, his one liners in the dressing room to deflect onto someone else. My memories of Dale Anderson will be of a happy, talented footballer and football friend that only can be truly known once you’ve shared a dressing room, bus journey or chat over pre match beans on toast with cheese. RIP Dale – fly high”
Renowned for his intricate dribbling skills and ability to enthrall crowds with his mazy runs, Anderson endeared himself to supporters during Nigel Clough’s tenure as manager. His impact was pivotal during Clough’s early leadership, becoming a fan favorite and solidifying his place in the hearts of Brewers’ supporters.
