I'm Very sad to have recently found out that my old work friend, and City fan, Chris Hughes from the Maesycwmmer and Bargoed area, has passed away.
Some of you older posters might remember Chris posting under the alias "Blazing Saddles".
Chris's funeral is this Thursday 3rd August, 13:30 at Shirhowy Crematorium, Pontllanfraith, Blackwood, NP12 2YT.
Fly High my fellow Bluebird.... RIP.

Worked with Chris at ACT and we often talked about our beloved Cardiff! Last time i spoke with him was at the Wigan game last season.. at half time he said that was the worst 45 minutes he has seen!!
RIP Chris.

Same here, Mart; and he was one of those '

Is this the same Chris that worked for Iceland back in the 90s?

Yes
Christ, that’s terrible news, I worked with Chris at Iceland/Littlewoods, we used to hide on a Saturday afternoon listening to my radio following City, seen him many times over the years down the city.
Was Chris ill?
Thanks

I knew Chris he was a good friend to me, we used to regularly go to the Cardiff game. Starting off in Napier then to the Ivor Davies. He told me in March that he had a brain tumour and only had months to live.
RIP CHRIS (fuzzy) Hughes condolences to his family and friends
