Robbie Williams following the Villa
« on: October 28, 2010, 10:46:58 AM »
What an odd couple!

Quote
Robbie Williams admits he's now following Aston Villa's results closely after their signing of Stephen Ireland.

Williams, a Port Vale supporter, admits he's now getting around in Villa training gear.

Robbie told the Birmingham Mail: “Stephen and I share the same personal trainer, and I met up with him over the summer when he came to stay with me.

“He’d rented a place out there in LA but I said ‘I’ve got a house free, come and stay at mine’.

“I like him and think he’s an amazing player.

“He sent me over some Villa training kit, so I’ll be in that regalia next time I try to lose a few pounds playing football.”

Nice to see Robbie (a board member at the Vale) has adopted the Villa, much like myself (except I'm not on the board, obv)

At least Robbie Williams is not one of those celebrity pricks who shouts loudly to everybody
'I SUPPORT MAN U, ARSENAL, CHELSEA.'
Always been a Vale lad and he's stuck with them.

Lyrics are bloody awful, mind.

Wasn't he pictured at Chelsea most weeks a few years ago?

Not sure, I found this
The club's most famous fan is singer Robbie Williams, who was raised in Stoke-on-Trent. He is now a major shareholder, having, in February 2006, bought £240,000 worth of the £250,000 worth of available shares in the club. Castle Comfort Stairlifts, the club's sponsors, at the same time bought the remainder for £10,000. For this investment, a restaurant at Vale Park is named after him.
"Although I can't be at the Vale often, my investment is just to say that my heart is still there and I'm a huge supporter. I'm really excited about what we may be able to do with the club in the future." Robbie Williams speaking in 2006.

He could save a baby from an inferno, and he would still be a cnut!

Has he split up with Jonathan Wilkes then and feeling lonely?

There's a pic of him, skin-headed and in his late teens, in Terry Weir's photo book. Think it was taken after we walloped Vale in the FA Cup (?) in '91.

Where, where? But I do agree with you. It's like discovering that twat from Soccer AM Richard Loverboy or whatever his name was is suddenly a villa fan...
