' Norman Owen RIP '

7th March 1962 - 24th September 2019

A true local legend and passionate Bluebird

Norman first went to watch Cardiff on the train from Port Talbot approx 1973/74. He was aged 11/12.

A staunch supporter attending games both home and away and a season ticket holder until ill health stopped him attending games.

Was respected by all of Port Talbot and Neath Bluebirds who knew him


he is survived by his son, daughter and grandchildren all following in his footsteps and carrying on his legacy by supporting Cardiff City Football Club

Absolutely gutted. Hes a port Talbot/city legend for sure.

Myself, like a few posters above are very good mates with his son. We share his heartache.

Thoughts with Richard and his family
