Huge thanks to the kindness of Witton Warrior. he contacted the club and they in-turn have contacted me. Myself and Carter have been invited to Bodymoor Heath the day before Millwall to watch the press conference, tour the facilities, meet the players, watch them train and something special is being arranged with Jack. They said they will sort some media coverage of this as well so hopefully I can share it all with you after. We will be in the Holte suite after the Ipswich game this week then down the Social after that for a bit. Pre match is usually the Windsor, Briar Rose or Old Royal (or any combination of the three). thanks again Alex VTWD

Hi guys,

So the club sent their video and content manager down to Carters hospital appointment (hes having a running blade made) yesterday to do some filming and interviews with myself, carter and his prosthetist Steve (also a Villa fan) as they are making a little film about him. We are due at BMH tomorrow morning, 9am to watch Bruces press conference then whatever else they have planned for our day. On Saturday we are in the Heineken lounge for the match along with about 70 Steamers & C-Crew lads but at half two me and Carter have to head down to the tunnel as he has been asked to be a flag bearer! Got a very happy lad on my hands ;-)

That's ace. And he's already won as many games as Eric Black did when he was in charge of the team.
