Just hear Mike died yesterday.
A Cardiff legend.
No further information yet.
Hands OFF
Not very old ?
Following Cardiff RFC all over from sunny Bournemouth in Blue and Black
47.
A tragic loss, all our condolences to his family.
Very sad news and he will be remembered for a very long time at Cardiff Arms Park.
Bapp: Very sad news and he will be remembered for a very long time at Cardiff Arms Park.
When I read this post, I thought, "Who's Mike Budd?" But after reading the news report in the Echo and seing who he played for and with and that he came to Cardiff from Bridgend RFC, I remembered him.
An excellent player who always caused Cardiff problems when we played Bridgend and was certainly glad when he came to Cardiff.
I echo Bapp's words and those of others on this site.
A cracking openside. People often look at the Bridgend stalwart connection and forget he was a Cardiff boy who played for Cardiff Schools and St Jo's (I think?).
He was very unlucky not to play for Wales and was a big influence in our Cup Final victory over Llanelli in 92 (ish).
Rest in peace.
I wonder if Cardiff/Bridgend RFC's will do something in his memory? They should do.
Real shocker!
Great club man, player, and a genuinely nice bloke
