Dai Walters is a very very astute business man who saw the opportunity to create something special and unique at Ffos Las - it was a business opportunity as well as a labour of love for him.

I don't think he would see CCFC as a business opportunity and it would not be a labour of love - his love is horses not football

I don't. Could have gone for work there in the office side(finance etc) but went my own way and didn't want say an easy ride to getting a job just as family. Could have been chaos with disagreements etc so best to stay away I thought
