Typical poor journalism of the Mail - headline states "Ex-Birchfield Harrier" - when she is a life member of the club. All Birchfield Olympians gain automatic life membership - others get it for long service.

On now is David Bradley. Also a Villa fan.

Seemed a nice bloke. Shame his general knowledge wasn't up to much!
-
Who did Gabby run to celebrate with in the dugout?
-
I'd say best of luck but it's already been...best of luck anyway! UTV!
Superb choice of specialist subject.
-
What make of electric drill did Darius Vassell use to drill through his big toe nail?
-
What make and type of firework did John Gidman manage to fire into his own eye?
-

It wasn't him that did it.
-
Would we love Sir Brian as much if he hadn't failed that medical?
-
Where was Barrie Hole when he was up and down?
-
Wonder how difficult it will be as the celebrity questions tend to be a little simpler and seeing that there is a long history to go through and could be some real tough ones in there for anyone but the most avid of club historians. Maybe it will be from a certain period? Got to have the question about Chris Nicholl's "achievement" in there surely!

No.
-
The period covered is from 1980 to 1990. Nicholl's four-goal extravaganza happened in 1976 so won't be featured.

Ah right. Should be worth a watch.
-
I'm sure we'll all gain top marks.
-
Would we love Sir Brian as much if he hadn't failed that medical?
I wouldn't. As a teenager Villa meant more to me than anything and at that time I would have been distraught.
-
What three games did I walk out of at half time during the 1985/86 season in disgust at how crap we were?
-
I'm so sad that this is going to be the highlight of NYE for me. As long as I can beat her score.
-
Where was Barrie Hole when he was up and down?
Rose & Crown.............
-
If she's been watching Villa this Season and learnt anything!, she should have a great chance of winning as she will just not be able to pass! ;-)
-

Rose & Crown.............
Correct! There is a Claret and Blue Rattle and Rosette in the post.
-
I'm playing guess the answers, I reckon amongst the answers there will be:
Ron Saunders, Tony Barton, Ron Bendall, 13, Peter Withe, Jimmy Rimmer, Nigel Spink, Rotterdam, Doug Ellis, Tony Morley v Everton, Graham Turner, Graham Taylor, Bosco Janvovic, Didier Six, Billy McNeill, Graham Taylor, Highbury, Chelsea fans, Tony Cascarino, Josef Venglos.
-
Throw in Oscar Arce and Hector Wassaname and I think you are on a winner there.
-
Mark Falco, Banik Ostrava, Simon Stainrod, Rotterdam, Barcelona, Mark Walters, Middlesbrough, Ian Ormondroyd, Ivo Stas.

14?
-
No doubt we'll be the last set if questions asked.
-
Here we go. How come there's no match thread? BOOOO - Legion out
-
Shit! I thought it started at 7.30.
-
Here we go!
-
Here we go...
-
100%. Boooooooooom!
-
8 points. Disappointed. Must do better. Me, not her.
-
I got 9
-
All right except for the last one guessed Fenerbahce instead of Besiktas. I now hate both teams.
-
10/12. Got the aggregate one wrong and the opposition in the euro cup.
Scored 3 for blur.
-
I got 10. I got the league cup opponents and the team we played behind closed doors wrong.
-
No doubt we'll be the last set if questions asked.
Not bad at all. Even got a little dig in at the noses which is always nice.
-
Didn't get the points behind Liverpool and closed doors opponents, did surprisingly well on Blur.
-
Very good performance from Katherine. Impressed by Josh Widdecombe though.
-
Didn't know the points behind Liverpool, and couldn't get Oxford United out of my mouth in time-I even went to the away game for that-2 wrong then.
Having said that it's a lot easier sat at home rather then doing it in person on a prime time show-she did well and I think she knew the Barcelona Super Cup even though she said Bayern.
-
I got just 1 wrong, I said we finished 10 points behind Liverpool in 1989/90 and the answer was 9.
Can't believe she got the Blues question wrong regarding the many goals we put past them in 1988.
-
Only the Liverpool one wrong. I was relieved I didn't embarrass myself in front of the missus.
-
I did better on the Blur round and I. hate Blur
-
Didn't know the points behind Liverpool but got the rest right.
-
Just watched on bbc iplayer. One wrong - the Liverpool one.
-
Six Didier... eh lol
-
Liverpool and opposition behind closed doors.
-
I got the Liverpool one wrong as well.
The rest were pretty easy.
I did well on the Blur questions but it did help that I'm reading the Alex James book at the moment.
-
I got them all right though they were pretty easy to be honest. It retained my kudos in front of the family though I think to be honest they were more amazed to find out we had ever won anything or beaten teams like Barcelona
-
I got the Birmingham City league cup question wrong and forgot it was Besiktas in the European Cup. I dunno how I got the Blues question wrong, I went for Ipswich cos I remembered Platty scoring 4 or so vs them in that competition at one time.
-
I remember that blues game. We had Ormondroyd doing near post flick ons from corner kicks and blues had someone about 2 foot shorter to mark him. 2 or 3 of the goals were scored that way.
-
I got more than Katharine Merry did on the Villa questions, not bad considering I've only been a fan since 1993. I only got two less than Josh Widdicombe on the Blur questions, and I got the same amount of Black Books questions right as the contestant for that. I was hopeless on the Russel Wallace questions, but then again Nick Baker didn't do much better. I think they set easier questions for the celebrity editions, though, and does anyone know how much the nominated charities gain from their patrons' performances? Do they get a sum per point, or is there a set donation to the winner's charity and a smaller one for the other three?
-
Just watched this back on the Iplayer and got 10 correct answers. I'd said Valur instead of Besiktas when I really should've known better. Also got the runner-up to the scousers by how many points question wrong.
-
I watched it on Iplayer and only got the Liverpool one wrong.
The period that the questions covered relate to a time when the Villa was the single most important thing in my life. If the questions were to cover the last 10 years then I reckon I'd only get half right.

It must be a Chris thing, I thought it was Valur.

Nah, I got it and I'm a Chris.
-
I also watched on the iPlayer and like most of you, the only question that I got wrong was the points behind Liverpool one.
Also, Barie Hole used to go out with my cousin when he was at the Villa.
-
Baring in mind I was only born in '81, I was happy with how many I got right. I got a couple that she didn't get and it was meant to be her specialist subject.

Just thick blokes called Chris that got it wrong then.
-
No got the Besiktas and Blues questions wrong myself! Hangs head in shame!
-
Any Andrew Greaves questions?
-

Same here! I can't face myself in the mirror
