Matt Pontin:


Today at half past midnight (Welsh time 12:30 tomorrow on Tuesday).

My heart aches as I can not be with my family to say goodbye to my Uncle Keith.
Janet, Kayla & Lauren:Please say goodbye for me, sending you love and cwtches today x
Wendy& Wayne- I will be thinking about you x

Here is my own tribute to my childhood hero.



KEITH PONTIN RIP :ayatollah: :bluebird: :bluescarf: :bluebird:

A fitting tribute there Annis.
I remember him breaking into the city side late 70s. He was a proper old fashioned centre back.
RIP Keith.

I remember him being interviewed once and asked if he could improve any aspect of his game, what would it be. He replied "My kicking".

He played with his heart and his head.
