The fans and squad of Llandudno Football Club pulled out all the stops to commemorate super fan The Red Van Man.

In honour of the club stalwart Tony Healy, known for his trademark red van, the Seasiders took their home fixture at The Giant Hospitality Stadium against Aberystwyth in the Welsh Premier League as an opportunity to pay their respects to the former committee member and volunteer.

Emily Owen, parliamentary candidate for Aberconwy in the next general election said: "Lovely to see so many people at Llandudno football club celebrating Tony Healy's life for a minutes applause before the match.

"He was a man who always made me smile, saw the positives in everything and always encouraged everyone he came across."

Mr Healy, from Kirkby, Merseyside, died suddenly in the early hours of Saturday, March 24 - hours before travelling to watch Tudno away at Newtown.

In honour of Mr Healy, the team first unveiled a memorial in the shape of a sign with his trademark "Keep The Faith" catchphrase above the crossbar doors, where he would usually watch the match.

The players then walked out to the Gerry and the Pacemakers classic You'll Never Walk Alone, matchday anthem of Mr Healy's other beloved side Liverpool FC.

Once the squad was on the pitch, players and spectators gave Mr Healy a minute's round of applause, before going on to make him proud with a 1- 0 win courtesy of a 79th minute goal from Matthew Williams.

After the game, the players signed Marc Williams shirt from the teams clash with Swedish side IFK Goteborg in the UEFA Europa League qualifiers in 2016, which they gave to Mr Healy's sons.

A fundraising campaign organised by Llandudno FC Supporters Club manager Iain Dyer has beaten its original target of £500, with £1300 raised for sons Craig Stevens and Owen and James Healy.

Mr Healy's funeral will take place next Monday, April 9 at 2pm with a service at Our Lady Star of the Sea Catholic church, followed by the Mochdre Crematorium at 3pm. The wake will then take place at the Llandudno Football Club.
