Who was the 1st CCFC player you met?

I was introduced to CCFC by my late Grandfather at the age of 9 yrs.The first player I met was Paul Wimbleton outside the ground in the car park and it made my week ai! I remember going to school and telling the boys and they all went who's he? Lol.

Also anyone remember the free tracker bars outside the ground (promotions and they would give you enough to feel sick)? Why do I remember these things!

Mine was Ronnie Bird.

John Buchanan in April 78

Roger Gibbins outside the stadium.

Propper Gentleman, Propper Footballer.

I once played football with Roger Gibbins when he lived in Pentwyn.

Quick game of footy at Glyncoed Junior School

Andrew Legg,lived back to back with him for 20 years.

Tony Evans, he was in a bath down NP after training. We were being given a tour after winning the Under 11's cup, he was going mad because the physio kept turning the cold water tap on. Luckily he had speedo's on or he'd never have been able to sign my shirt

Funnily enough I met him again the other day after the leeds game in a pub in town. He was with roger gibbins and jonny hallworth jonny haha

I cant remeber the first city player i met but the first one i shock hands with was Andy Campbell.

Frank burrows once turned up at my house on my 9th birthday witha signed city shirt for me, legend

I used to deliver Sunday papers to Steve Grapes, he used to live in Llanmaes near Llantwit Major, used to drive a Lotus

Tom Heaton

I saw Darren Purse with his family at a resturant after Sheff Utd beat us 3-0 at Ninian Park in 2010 or something but he was in a rush so I just left it.

First Cardiff related person I met was Sam Hammam.

Nathan Blake....I stopped to help him carry a fruit machine out a pub in Newport !

Wayne Hughes great at free kicks if I remember rightly

danny gabbidon cam to my 8th birthday

Tough one this
I played alongside Jason Perry for Btm fc from 8 years of age and his father took us to our first City game so I suppose that doesn't count,Ronnie Bird became our coach and his son Gareth also played in that team so that don't count.............Phil Dwyer came every year to our presentation nights so he would be my first I suppose(legend) was lucky enough to interview him.Does anyone know if the players still do this?,if not then that would surely help us build for the future.

sorry it was a bit long memory lane came knocking

Mine was Derek Brazil.

Walking to a City game years ago in the dark old days, can't remember who it was against.

It was me and my dad walking to the stadium and my dad started conversation with him, which continued all the way to the ground!

He was injured at the time, so just going down to watch the boys.
