RIP FELLOW BLUEBIRD STEVE

shocking news annis , always reported on the city as it was at the time rip bluebird

r.i.p Steve

Very sad. I thought he was very honest in his reporting of city’s games added with a bit of wit.he wrote some hilarious articles in the echo about different parts of Cardiff he visited called Tucker’s Travels. Think he was about 40 years old ?

Whoa...... rip steve....
how young was he annis?

I went to school with him. He was 53
RIP

Sad News RIP .

Met him a couple of times and he was a really good laugh. Last time was in the services on the way to the 2012 League Cup Final. My best memory of him was when he was banned from a fans meeting with the Riddler but he somehow sneaked in! 53 is far to young RIP.

I was there that night.He shaved his beard off The Riddler didn't recognise him.
This is shocking news .
RIP Steve

Way too young. Rip

Very sad news. A witty guy. Too many around my age passing away!
Just been reading a funny piece he wrote last year about how uncool it is to be called Steve these days compared with back in the 70s and 80s! RIP big man.

Sad news, Steve was a one off for sure and will be sadly missed

He upset a few with his reporting but said it as he thought it was ! RIP Steve.

Wow......that news has shaken me a bit.......in his 50's for christ sake.

I didn't always agree with his articles but at least he had the balls to stand up and say it as he saw it.

RIP Steve, condolances to all your family and friends.

Terrible terrible news.

Didn’t always agree with what I wrote, but as said above he really was one of us and one of the good guys - lucky enough to meet him.

RIP and thoughts go out to his close ones.

Awful news I used to really enjoy listening to the banter between Tucks and Blakey on the bootroom and u could tell he was a massive city fan. RIP.

Really sad news. I knocked around with him for a bit in Fairwater, in school & 6th form etc. He was a really funny entertaining guy.
R.I.P. Steve Tucker

Bloody hell, didn't always agree with him but suppose that's the sign of a good reporter,, saying as it is rather than what people want to hear.

RIP Steve my condolences to all family and friends .

Fly high Fly high.

Can't beleive that! R.I.P Steve Tucker

RIP Tucks shocked is not the word
Best thoughts going out to his family from all City fans,God just wanted another Bluebird for his flock R.I.P

Absolutely devastating news for his family and friends, absolute gentleman who I got to meet at a friends film premiere at Chapter arts, he spent most of the evening with Boyd Clack.

RIP Steve

Really sad news and my condolences go to his family.

I rarely agreed with the style in which he reported news regarding the club whilst working for Walesonline because he was the perfect example of a Journalist who never let the facts get in the way of a good headline. Will Ken Choo ever forget the manner in which ST had him over with the "Russell Slade Was A Failure" following an off record chat at Awards Evening, nothing about who won what awards just Ken Choo being naive around a journalist who prayed on that naivety.

But put all that to one side and ST was a journalist who had a natural aptitude for using words and ideas in a quick and inventive way to create humour. I can remember many articles he wrote that had me laughing out loud at his inventiveness, insight and good old common sense.

I recall his article putting forward Craig Noone for an England call up and how he couldn't understand how Roy Hodgson could pick Raheen Sterling, Alex Oxlaide- Chamberlain and Wilfred Zaha ahead of him. So much for the common sense claim

But that was Steve Tucker who I believe was so much better than the journalist we all saw reporting on Cardiff City.

Says it all for me, RIP Steve.

Sad news

RIP Tucker! Used to enjoy reading about his take on things. He always had time for a chat about the City when he was enjoying a few drinks.
I thought he lost a lot of weight after getting into running years ago and had stayed pretty healthy. More recently used to see him in and around Llandaff.
Very sad to hear of his passing.

That is shocking news - anyone know what happened ?

He had a couple of young children , very very sad news. Last tim eI saw him - he was looking lean and fit and had taken up running
