    Re: Hearing phil dwyer has passed away.

    Very sad and he wasn’t that old. A defender I will always associate with Cardiff City in the 1970’s.

    Would be 67 I think. RIP to a proper City stalwart.

    If it’s true that’s very sad news. Rip Joe. Great memories watching you for all those years.

    Ironic how one thread on here mentioned him the other day.

    Re: Hearing phil dwyer has passed away.

    I'm a bit reluctant to comment until it is confirmed but he was probably my first hero at the City.
    Very sad news if true.

    You’re correct, I was going by my age, 66, and I knew he was a school year above me. School years run August to July I think and my birthday is in January when I’ll then be a year younger than him. If you get my drift

    Nothing on the other board, and I know that he comes across as being a good mate. So will wait until the news is formally announced

    Yes, I think that it's wise to wait for clarification.

    I see that Jason Mohammad has posted something about Joe Dwyer passing away so it’s very probably true, but as there’s nothing from the club or being shown on News Now to that effect, it’s probably best to assume nothing yet.

    Legend and more sad news following in from Frank Burrows and Len Ashurst

    Didn't Joe play in goal for us against Bradford when their lights were broke and we played a midweek game in the afternoon?? Back in the early 80s??

    Yes, it was in February 1983. Lindon Jones had a go as well after Andy Dibble was injured. We lost 4-2 and Joe scored one of our goals, not sure how many he let in.

    He was about 5 months older than me. He was 68 in October

    Very Sad news - one of my first heros in the early 70's side, and although as he got older he got a bit slower he was always a great play and always gave 100%.

    I used to think as well he had a great raport with the fans, I'm sure I remember one time he lunged in on a tackle and took some trickey winger out, turned to the bob bank and gave a wink as we chanted his name.
