    Taster:

    "An exchange of letters between a disgruntled Cardiff City fan and the club's manager has been rediscovered after 41 years.

    Peter Edwards wrote to the then-Bluebirds boss Richie Morgan in 1980, bemoaning the club's performance in a Welsh Cup tie.

    Mr Morgan wrote back, saying he agreed with him about the side's "disgraceful display" against Newport City."
    Thanks for posting that. Peter (Ted) was an old school friend. We played football and cricket together. He was a good keeper for Rumney Rangers in the Combination and a talented cricketer who had a spell as Glamorgan's "Cricket in the Community" Co-ordinator.

    We watched the City together when we weren't playing but I never realised that he sent that letter. Taken from us far too young.

    I saw the picture of Peter with his family on the BBC website and I'm sure he was in my class at Twyn Junior School Caerphilly and we all moved to senior school in September 1971 ? I think as a child he lived on Castle Park, Caerphilly ? Would that be correct. Very sorry to hear that he has passed away. Another Bluebird taken too early. RIP Peter and condolences to his wife and family

    Yes Peter lived in Castle Park and went to Twyn before Caerphilly Grammar.
