Dai sounded quite lucid, nothing like his football ground persona! The man can talk a bit of sense. I am truly gobsmacked :hehe:

He is a well respected pillar of society in Whitchurch forever opening events and providing well positioned views,it's always a pleasure to bump into him .
I cannot, just cannot imagine Dai Hunt opening events, no matter how hard I tryQuote:

He sponsored Kieffer Moore’s shirt. Cost him £1,000. He said he will get both the home and away shirt. Fair play to him.
Yes go to 1 hour 6 minutes https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m000zbltQuote:

Rock on Dai, don't change.
True! I just wish he'd keep his rantings down though. Having said that, I haven't sat anywhere near him in the new stadium. Sitting a few rows behind him on the Bob Bank for several seasons, was errrrrr...interesting to say the leastQuote:

Couldn’t quite get the bit about £1000 shirt at first. Understand now. Fair play, sounded so different to what I expected of Dai. Will never take the piss again.
Ps where does or did he work? Sounded unbelievably like a fellow I knew slightly down here in Pembrokeshire.
Gilo got it spot on regarding DH.
Proper supporter who pays his money and has his say.
At 500 quid a shirt, I reckon we can expect more than usual from David this season!
Nice one Dai :thumbup:
Projecting spittle in the Covid era is likely to win few new friends.Quote:

Osama! Osama! Bin! Bin! Laden! My dad, who was in his late 60s by then, stands up, rolls the Echo up and starts to beat Dai about the head with it. Dai turns around and says "You can't do that", to which my dad just kept on hitting him about the face and shoulders with the newspaper. "I'm off to get a steward" says Dai. "Go on then" was the replay as Dai was attacked with the Echo again. Needless to say he didn't get a steward, just sat down in his seat and didn't open his mouth for the rest of the 2nd half.
Only met him once after Sala’s death by the Statue memorial.A tv camera crew were there asking to interview fans which he jumped at.
Also remember him on Pointless.
Whatever everybody thinks of him there’s no doubting he’s CCFC through and through.
Has anyone noticed how the players' warm up in front of 104/Dai Hunt is much shorter this season? He can be a complete tool shouting at players/giving instructions/occasional abuse. He was moved back several rows a few seasons ago to keep him away from the players and was threatened with being banned when he was on the Bob Bank. That said, he seems a little more relaxed this season.....so far.
In Dai Hunt fashion, you shouldn't be afraid to call a spade a spade. He is a racist.Quote:

Leo Fortune West and Neil Alexander always seemed to be his favourites for his special style of 'encouragement' in those days :hehe:Quote:

Suffice to say, for the last 20 years, he hasn't been far away.Quote:

What happens with sponsoring a shirt? Is Dai Hunts name on Keiffers short somewhere?
‘Opening events’? Such as? 🤔Quote:

Oh gawd! I remember that guy. About 30 years ago he used to stand on the Bob Bank roughly under the TV gantry shouting abuse at the players. He was so weird the people around him, including me, cowered in embarrassment at his antics. I'm amazed he hasn't been banned let alone given a platform by the club to amuse the players prior to kick off.
The only difference now is that he is in the Canton. Never goes to away matches though. Maybe he's been banned from them....don't know.Quote:

Does he go to Wales games, I wonder? "Gareth...Gareth"."Aaron....Aaron" Could you imagine him at the 2016 Euros? :hehe: :hehe:Quote:
