Former Newport County chairman David Hando has passed away. He was the driving force behind the reformed Newport AFC after County went bust, without him there’d be no Newport County today. I remember him as the Deputy Head at Radar Comp, a thoroughly decent man dedicated to his hometown club, how we could do with someone of his calibre on the board at Cardiff City. RIP Mr Hando.

He was a gentleman.
RIP Mr Hando. You did a lot of good in your life.
I knew him from my days at Newport City Council. He had an air of quiet determination that others would do well to follow.
It really was a fantastic achievement by him.

Always admired him, Newport County owe him everything, RIP.
Yep, the sort of guy every club could do with. RIP
