He was also stadium announcer at Ninian Park for years, Phil Suarez was the stadium announcer before Ali, he was also a radio DJ on Red Dragon Radio which is now Capital FM.
If memory serves me well, Ali got sacked one year and a right numpty took over
but he was real shite so Ali was reinstated

Cheers Steve!
You playing summer league this year?
Can you still hold a cue mate or are you past it now?
You used to be quite a decent player back on the lakelands days?

Wasn't it for saying stay off the pitch in the play offs as we were about to go through to the final with not long left and we fucked it up

I know who that is but I won't say his name seen as you just said he was shite.
He was the Cardiff Blues announcer as well as ours.

It was that mug from kiss fm. I think he thought he was doing a kids birthday party not a football match

2001-2002 season
1st Match ...Cardiff City v Crystal Palace friendly
Steve Bruce was CP manager at the time.
Stood next to me all through the game shaking his head saying " god we're bad, we're very bad"
Why next to me, cos I was the fourth official
At one stage, 5 subs were made in one go, ha ha, Ali never announced them individually .
City won, great day for me and the start of a new career for Ali

Fair play to Ali, he was very respectful to Phil Suarez in one of his books. Called him the original 'voice of Cardiff City', or something similar. RIP Phil.
