    As this thread has mutated into questions about identities, my CCMB name is coined after Dewi Lewis who was sports editor of the Western Mail and wrote on Cardiff City and Wales football. He was also my uncle. He wrote under the name of Citizen and one book - A History Of Cardiff City - he wrote was under the name of Citizen. The cover is my profile picture.

    Weirdly, it was a post by Cyclops asking who Citizen was that showed up in a Google search one day that prompted me to make my first post on here to answer the question (after lurking for years).

    Hence, Citizen's Nephew.

    Why Dewi chose Citizen I don't know. I never got to ask him.
    I chose Splott Parker, living in Splott, being a St Albans & Bridgend St boy and spending a lot of time over the park as a kid and playing for the school and the Mission over there. Coincidentally it also resembled the name of a footballer. Living in Rumney now but I’ve never fancied the moniker Rumney Recker.

    I figured out the Splott part but I still think you're the Cardiff Spiderman and you're just trying to throw me off the scent Mr P!
