Grant Adams is a legendary supporter.

WhY is he?

Is this a 5 post argument or a longer stint before I start?🤔

5 post please.  That will be plenty to list the reasons why Mr Adams is a "legendary supporter"

[dave.woodhall]

That's enough of that please. This is not the place to debate the merits of an individual supporter who happens to be one of the best I've ever met.

No worries Dave

I'd hate to jeopardise your chances of a free meal sometime in the future.

I've met Grant and he's a nice guy but when did we start claiming some supporters are better than others?

[Old Kodjia]

Exactly.  Giving Dave Woodhall a freebie in the hospitality area may well make him (in Dave's eyes) "one of the best I've ever met" but it certainly does not constitute "legendary status"

[dave.woodhall]

Come back when you've done as much for ordinary Villa supporters as Grant has. And I don't need freebies off him - I get enough off the board thanks.

[TheMalandro]

Boring. Do you really think the purpose of this thread was a freebie and to big up another supporter?

Ridiculous.

Oh get your tongue out of his arse - It's sickening.

[TheMalandro]

Find somewhere else, have you tried the combat 18 message board?

[dave.woodhall]

It's called speaking as you find. Someone does a lot for his fellow supporters - I'll say so. But as was said above, this thread doesn't exist to talk about other supporters, or for petty grievances to be aired.

I have no grievance with anyone, petty or otherwise.

I have had had favours from Grant in the past so I'm certainly not in a position to complain.  You are the one who started talking about other supporters and people would be excused for thinking that we should be calling him "Saint Grant" moving forward.  Even HDE doesn't describe himself as a "legend".  Do you not think, given the benefit of hindsight that it was a bit OTT?

If you're speaking as you find then great.  The way you put it across though, was as if it was the general accepted opinion, rather than just your own.

Finally, how many other matchday enterprises have you given free advertisments to on here?  As for the "good causes" claim in post one, is that just you "speaking as you find" again or is it a fact?

I think you're getting wound up about something pretty minor here Old Kodjia

[Clampy]

I don't see the problem with personally singing the praises of a fellow supporter if one deserves it. Besides, it seems Dave is just doing someone a favour by promoting parking space which someone will no doubt find very useful. I don't see the problem with it.

[dave.woodhall]

First of all, I've not called anyone a legend.

Second, I gave my opinion - he's someone I have a great deal of time for, not least for the way in which he's always helping other supporters.

Third, anyone in the same position who asks gets the same treatment.

Fourth, I was told, and it's been said elsewhere, that the money raised is going to help others.

Finally, will you be apologising for the earlier insults?

I think claiming him as one of the "best Villa supporters" can irk a bit. Then again I suppose any of us who've endured Villa since 2010 could have a genuine claim on that title.
