sidcow Posted September 16, 2022 Author VT Supporter Share Posted September 16, 2022 I'm pretty sure there are pictures of Sharon and Ozzy on the pitch at Villa Park wearing scarfs isn't there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villatillidie95 Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 Sir Mark Rowley, the new chief of the Metropolitan Police, is a season ticket holder at villa apparently. Just came across an article and he went from Handsworth grammar school to Cambridge Uni to study Maths then ended up as a beat copper walking the streets of Birmingham a few months after his final exams. He was also beaten unconscious 18 months into the job by a gang of Birmingham City hooligans! Whilst not really famous per se, I was surprised that the most powerful copper in the land is a ST holder at VP and probably in attendance most games. Was in charge of policing the Queen's funeral too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MessiWillSignForVilla Posted October 23, 2022 Share Posted October 23, 2022 Tigers winger Nadolo at the game today and apparently a fan, never would've guessed that. Another reason to love the big man! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely fair play. That is exactly the kind of shit I would do if I was in that position. Geezer was looking at buying the club with other partners before Lerner did from memory. I saw Vernon Kay interviewing band about 20 years ago asking what club they supported and all yelled Villa in unison Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaJ100 Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 Read it years ago but apparently the Prince William thing came from being a young teenager with other posh mates and all of them didn't know anything about football, so put some names in a hat to draw who they should support and William drew villa. He then actually started to follow the club a bit and as we all know leads to AVFC- the obsession Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet the thing is William looks the least like a toff out of the lot of them. Quite surprised that Susan Boyle (leopard print waistcoat) went to the same school as Wills and Eddie. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, the story I heard was that everyone he knew supported Manure and he wanted to be different. Well done Prince William I say. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pongo's Socks Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 So what's the etiquette regarding celebs when you spot them? Saw David Bradley on his way into Trinity for the Stevenage game, was with my two lads who love Harry Potter, and I loved Bradley in Game of Thrones. Just didn't feel right to accost an 80 year old bloke for a selfie/autograph although I'd have loved to have said hello to him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think it's on YouTube somewhere. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
