UPDATED: “ A Fellow Cardiff City Fan & Friend “

Updated: Thursday 16th April 2020


Leighton has been good last few days. They’ve taken the oxygen mask from him now so it’s a case of building his strength back up now.






A Cardiff fan for 40 plus years and many may know


Wishing Leighton Strength and love and will to keep fighting, I spoke to Leightons son who said some days his Father has been really bad and then can have a few hrs of ok.

I am posting this for City fans to send their wishes and the hopefully the few idiots might finally wake up and take this seriously.


From his hospital bed.


Leighton Rees:

Just a quick but massive thanks to so many people
I’m 15 days in to Covid 19 and my 4 th day in hospital
Things are hard and some terrible sights in my ward and the NHS from specialists to doctors to nurses to cleaners to porters are all fantastic and working relentlessly


Thank you to Tom Rees Deborah Lloyd and my parents for so much love
Thank you to all my RAFFA VETS and they’re messages

Massive thank you to all my CARDIFF CITY fellow supporters and thanks for well wishes from other teams
Thank you to all at MOD ST ATHAN

STAY SAFE EVERYONE

Leighton and Tom are both top blokes.

The first time I met Leighton he thought I was a jack because I had a white towel in the gym. I explained I was a Cardiff fan, he smiled and shook my hand.

I wrote to him the other day and my thoughts are with him and his family at this horrible time.

Speedy recovery fellow bluebird,keep on fighting,you will beat this!!

Best of luck Buddy you are in good hands and you will be back for next season

I have been hearing he has been having some very rough times, he is a strong lad though and we all wish him well especially the Wales away gang, get well soon mate.
