Framed white away "32 RED " shirt, signed with a picture of us in each corner of the frame collecting autographs. 1 of the pictures is of ourselves with GK and RL in the boardroom after they both signed also

A painting of Villa Park from 1990 taken from a North Stand POV showing the old Holte, Witton and Trinity Road Stands. Also got the 1990 squad's signatures at the bottom (plus Doug's as well!).

A Terry Weir photo of me and a few mates in the dug-out at Notts County in 1983 after a light-hearted half-time pitch invasion.

Stone me that's a long sentence.

1957 FA Cup Final programme and newspaper from that day.


Ive got the 1957 programme but not any newspapers. However I have the newspaper for the 1956 Cup Final, a blue coloured Birmingham saturday night sports paper which must have been the forerunner of the Sports Argus.
Im rather pleased that the one vague piece of small heath memorabilia I have relates to when they must have realised that the gypsy curse was for real. Well done Mr Trautmann.


That would have been the Blue Mail. The Argus was a different publication which started in 1897.

There's a mirror at my parents' house with the old circluar badge and a really nice deep claret bearing the legend "A record 7 wins" of the FA Cup. It lists all our honours and you can place it between 77 and 81 based on what it includes.


I was given a mirror like that  - can't remember whether it had the honours on it but it was circular with that Villa badge- for my birthday - this would have been around 1982/83.

Anyway, I was just a kid and didn't have anywhere to hang it, so I put it on the floor next to my bed.  Of course, I forgot about this when I woke up and trod on it, which cracked it.

I blame myself for the subsequent seven years...

Got a programme of every Villa game since I've been a season ticket holder. Aged 25 and almost approaching my 500th game
