Heard news of his recent passing this evening. Very sad. A CCFC great. Thoughts with his family.

348 league games for City and a local lad as well, born in Penarth. I'd heard the name but didn't realise how dedicated he had been to the club.
RIP Bluebird.
He was also a member of the 1958 Wales squad.
^^^ In the group/playoff stages.
The best right back that I saw play for the City!Originally Posted by Wales-Bales
My condolences go out to family and friends. RIP Alan.
86 yrs old. A long, happy, and active life. Lucky man
Agree with you there, great club man, RIP
Great club man and excellent full back. RIP.
Ah, another one passes on. Remember him as RB in the 1959-60 promotion season, alongside Ronnie Stitfall, with Vearnecombe in goal behind hem and Malloy ahead of them. Great team and great right back. RIP.
RIP Bluebird
A fine player. He played in the first City game I ever saw in 1959. The word legend gets given to players far too easily these days and many times quite undeservingly. In my book he is a Cardiff City legend not only because of his consistently good play but also because of his loyalty, a rare commodity these days. Thanks for the memories Alan - RIP.
