" CALLING ALL CITY FANS! "

This Saturday is your chance to pay tribute to a true legend of Cardiff City Football Club! From 12pm at the club shop Cardiff City's record appearance holder, Phil Dwyer will be signing copies of his autobiography! The word legend is over used these days but in the case of Phil Dwyer it is appropriate! Anyone who ever saw him put his body on the line countless times in service for club and country will not disagree that he is what all players at the club should strive to be. Phil is one of the clubs most loved players, not only for his commitment and playing ability but also for his unique relationship with the fans. Phil was a grangetown boy, he grew up on the terraces of the grange end and every time he pulled on a blue shirt he never forgot that he was living out his dream, as well as that of every city fan.

Phil doesnt just talk about his memories on the pitch, playing in europe as well as participating in promotion and relegation campaigns but he also blows the lid off his time in the dressing room as he talks about the fights, drinking sessions and banter. From fist fights in the sloper road car park after games to Robin Friday being dropped off by the team bus In the middle of nowhere so he could get high, Phil tells it as it really was!

I hope everyone can get behind Phil and show him how much he means to the City supporters!

I look forward to reading this book Jimbo

Jimbo, I thought he would have held the signing session in the Ivor Davies, That is where he usually hangs out
Cant wait to read this book

Ha ha I think Phil needs a change of scenery! However I think he's talked to the landlord about stocking the book ha ha

Where have the years gone ? Remember Joe taking out Alfie Conn early in the famous FA Cup tie against Tottenham in 1977. Peter Sayer got the headlines, but without players like Phil Dwyer, we would not have won that game, and many others. Joe used to get complimentaries for my mate Terry Taylor, who I worked with in Sharpe & Fisher in the docks. Happy days

Ha ha as Phil admits in his book! He was the teams enforcer! His job was to smash the opposition off the pitch so the boys with talent could play!

He certainly was, jimbo

phils a god

This will be a good read without a doubt

There are only two real home grown legends for me at Cardiff City and that is Jason Perry and the other one " PHIL DWYER "
I grew up worshipping him and getting my comps for away games when I was 14 yrs old direct from Phil
No honestly Phil(Joe to many) is character beyond and a person who gave 99% of his football career to Cardiff City and nearly his life.
Please turn up in your hundreds on Saturday

Annis if you were only 14 then I must be older than you, You are right though Phil (Joey) was 100% Cardiff City and the fans then knew it. Can still remember standing in the awat end against Cambridge Utd no roof and pouring with rain so there was only one song we could sing:-

Joey, stop the rain
Joey, Joey stop the rain

Had many a good chat with Phil years later when he was manager of Bridgend Town, I will certainly be there on Saturday.

That story is in the book!! Phil remembers it fondly, as well as lots of other banter with the Cardiff and Swansea fans!!

I should also point out that if you can't make it on Saturday Phil will also be doing another signing on 29 October from 12pm at WH Smith in Queen Street!

Thank you for all the support you have shown Phils books far, I know he's absolutely thrilled!

You old bugger

Joe deserves a great turn out from fellow City Fans

Hey Annis less of the bugger , great character Phil, I have plenty of memories and stories about him and his legendary status, another time supporting Wales against England at Wembley and Phil spotted a banner in the crowd saying Dwyer Eats Currie (referring to Tony Currie) Phil laughed and proceeded to kick lumps out of said Currie for the next ninety minutes priceless.
