I spoke with him last month and he told me he’d been diagnosed with Leukaemia and was in and out of hospital
He hadn’t returned my emails or calls for several weeks and his wife Nina passed on the sad news this morning.
He was a lifelong Bluebird hailing from the Rhondda and had a great life
He was in his seventies when he met and married her and raised a young family all over again settling in France.
He was taken too soon
Goodbye my friend
RIP xx

This had been coming, which in a way makes it all the sadder. Very sad.

My posts asking for streams will forever be known as Maurice Swan posts :-(

RIP Bluebird

R.I.P Bluebird .

Sad to hear RIP Mo

His real name was Graham Pritchard

Many thanks for all of the kind words and messages guys
I’ve passed on to Nina the very fact that so many of you have offered your sincere condolences
I’m sure that in her sadness the thought of so much love being sent her families way is comforting indeed
Thank you x

Thankyou. Unfortunately I'm not familiar with that.
I thought it would be good to get Maurice's real name in case any of us old timers knew him.
His passing is particularly sad as until recently he appeared In good health and leaves behind a younger wife and young children. It will be very difficult for them.

RIP Bluebird.

That is sad news indeed. Not so long ago he seemed to be living his dream. RIP.

RIP Maurice. Terrible sad news

Sad news. RIP Bluebird.

RIP Maurice

RIP Maurice, very sad news.

Whilst searching through the history of Cardiff City transfers recently, I noticed that a Maurice Swan played for city.

Perhaps Maurice (Goalkeeper) was Graham's favourite player.
