Former Olympic sprinter and one of Wales' greatest sporting figures, Ron Jones, has died at the age of 87.
Jones won 12 Welsh sprint titles between 1956 and 1960 and competed at two Olympic games, four Commonwealth Games and three European Championships - captaining Team GB at the Mexico Olympics in 1968.
He was also a part of the Great Britain 4x110 yards relay team set a new world record of 40.0 seconds in 1963, with his remarkable efforts in the British team alongside Peter Radford, David Jones and Berwyn Jones to stun the US team perhaps what he is best remembered for.
As well as his exploits on the track, Jones also became Cardiff City's first managing director in 1980, holding the post for eight years.
Either side of his time with the Bluebirds were stints as chief executive of Queens Park Rangers and managing director of Portsmouth.
He was awarded an MBE in 2001 for services to sport and charity, having been a governor of the sports charity Sports Aid Cymru Wales.
In addition to that, he was inducted into the Welsh Sports Hall of Fame in 2013.
