I knew Will for many years; going back to his first venture at The Cafe Petite in Pencoed

When he had The Greendown down the Drope in Cardiff, he always kept a bottle of Tennessee Whisky on the rack with a label that read: "Ray Daniels Tennessee Whisky - No Jacks served in here!" :lol: :lol:

Remained a customer at all his restaurants for many years

I can't believe this. Will was a good friend of mine, and I also sat on the CCFC board with him. I spoke to him last about a month or so ago. Terrible news RIP Will, my friend. He was a true Bluebird :bluebird:

I remember talking to him at the Highwayman many years ago, not knowing him, but I commented on the old City programmes that were displayed there in a case at that time. He was very knowledgeable, & passionate on our club.

The Condemned mans meal & his Imported Guinness from Ireland were a great sales advert to,,,,I know!

So sad. Knew him from The Highwayman where we always chatted about the fortunes (or misfortunes) of the City. Such a nice man and so passionate about our club. Really gutted about this and my condolences to you and your family.

I didn't know him but I'm sorry for your loss.

Horrible to hear news like this, and I wish all the best to his family and close friends.
