Leeds United fans pay tribute to Toby NyeHe only celebrated his sixth birthday earlier this month, when he enjoyed a visit from a dinosaur and a tea party with his family.

Toby had been fighting neuroblastoma for the past two years and in October his parents revealed he had also been diagnosed with a brain tumour just months after being told he was in remission.

In November, his mum confirmed that doctors had told her that her son's treatment options had been exhausted.

Toby's parents Simon Nye and Stacey Worsley have two other children, Ollie and Sienna.
