To my eternal shame it was a Nose acquaintance who reminded me it was his birthday.

Happy Birthday. I started going down the Villa in 65 so missed him by about 3 years.

A few years before my time (born in 1957) but I was brought up on that FA Cup win, so always aware of him.
Happy Birthday Peter McParland.

The greatest post war Villa player without any doubt. I still have my star badge that my dad bought for me outside the Hollte Hotel.

And he still has to put-up with watching us alongside Jack Woodward for company on occasion. Let the man be.

I have always idolized him from the very first game he played.
I had never met him in the flesh. About five years ago my son lost his car keys in the North Stand car park. We crawled around for what seemed like hours hunting the keys. This very erect man my own age asked if he could help search. We said much appreciated. The guy said "are these the keys?" handing them to my son. For the first time we actually looked at him. It was Peter McParland.
Happy Birthday Peter and many of them.

My first hero, my first game was a win against Ipswich in 1959. He was quick, strong and scored, I was heart broken when he left us. Happy birthday Peter.
