I think we're all joining Prince Will as Villa fans tonight except MPH, who's ALWAYS been a Villa fan ....

Dave Skinner I heard that his dad was a bus driver who wore horrible tank tops

MPH you are on the right lines. My mate tells a story about when Blackmore was playing in his band and he told him that he would take him to meet a “proper” guitarist, who could show him “how it should be done”. He took him to meet Big Jim Sullivan who did indeed teach Richie Blackmore a thing or two😂😂

Stratford Johns live for a few years in Mostyn road.

I like the reduction of the “silly” games for sure. But it’s the change to a league system like the Champions League I don’t like. If not all teams play the same teams I think that detracts from the credibility of the competition imho.
