TEN years into his battle with cancer, former Cardiff City footballer Andy Legg has spoken at his most candid yet about the fight, admitting: “One day, it could kill me.”
In an honest and open account of his struggle with the disease, first diagnosed in 1999, the former Wales international has revealed how he was once given just 18 months to live, and how support from fans helped him through.
