Hope it isn't as bad as it looked when he went off chuffing on O2. Just saw it on MOTD, made me flinch. Looked like his knee buckled the wrong way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 Harvey Knibbs seems to be doing okay with Reading in League One, thirteen goals in all competitions, eight of those in the league, plus five assists, playing on the left wing 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s nice to think that some of these ex Villa players have been able to make a decent living, ~ £2-£3m a year. As good as some current Villa starters. some current Villa stars.

Amazingly, I was actually at this derby match in 1974 where he started. I don't remember him (too young), but I remember the game. Quote Villa’s inability to produce any sort of consistency sees them beaten at the Hawthorns, languishing in seventh, three points behind their near neighbours and eleven off the second division leaders with promotion looking a far tougher proposition that it had done at the end of October when they sat third and scoring for fun. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 Was a fantastic player for us in that era. Also scored all the goals in a 2-2 draw v Leicester City in 1976. R.I.P. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Deano & Dalian's Umbrella Posted February 25 Popular Post Share Posted February 25 (edited) Villa Talk is my favourite Villa forum but this "other football" distinction needs some re-thinking in my opinion. I can understand why discussion of ex-players still playing like Jack Grealish goes into "other football". But to my mind, there is no way that the news of the passing of a Villa great like Chris Nicholl should be classed as "other football" and it should also get its own thread, not just the next post after one about Carlos Gil. Players we don't even sign in the end get their own threads on the main forum! Edited February 25 by Deano & Dalian's Umbrella 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HongKongVillan Posted March 23 VT Supporter Share Posted March 23 Goal machine Jordan Bowery playing live on sky right now for Mansfield. No idea Mansfield is currently top of League 2.
