The last H&V of all

[kipeye]

Penultimate chance to say hello to us. And to give us £2 of your hard earned.

There's always the Big Issue.

191 was a worthy swansong. Like swallowing varnish. A lingering death but a lovely finish. I will have a sip to the memory.

As you've mentioned there will be special editions in hard copy?

Compilations twice a season.

Can we subscribe to those?

Sad to hear H&V will be no more. I haven't been to a game for a while now but I always looked forward to reading H&V on the train coming back down to London, as well as the Argus. All part of the matchday experience. Now, just like regular 3pm kick offs and an Aston Villa team that played entertaining attacking football and actually won more home games than they lost, they're now consigned to history. It's all very sad. RIP H&V. RIP football.

I'm looking forward to my last chance to shout... 'Theee Villa Fanzine!'

I got so cold selling on Trinity Road one night that my phone froze in my pocket and never worked again!

Really sad to hear this I always enjoyed reading H&V but have not gotten one for awhile which makes this all the more sad, will have to get my hands on this piece of history!

I've got two pieces in this edition.

It's not unlike when Woodward and Bernstein were filling the Washington Post during the unfolding of Watergate.

Well, it is, strictly speaking.

Rele-gate.

Ha, good work!

[Drummond]

When you say pieces, are they along the lines of a 'report'?

There is room for only one report writer in the world of Villa fans, HRH HH.

Travelling up for this game especially to buy my last H and V, outside the ground, in the form that I know it. Hope I will be able to get this souvenir edition signed by DW himself. I will buy two copies.

Slightly off topic. Not meeting family beforehand so might take MV junior into the Bartons for something to eat. Haven't been there for many years. Are they amenable you leaving cars in the car park during the game. And if so do you need to get there early.

No problem with parking there but it will be busy Saturday as the beer festival is on. If eating then I would suggest you book a table. And pop over and say hello!

Thanks for that. Only contemplating Burghers and Thai Fries. So wouldnt want to book a table. Can you eat in the bar?

[cheltenhamlion]

You can but with match goers and beer festival visitors you will have to get there early to get a seat.

They aren't precious on turnaround times so booking a table is a good way of guaranteeing a perch until you leave for the match.
