I was in my local last night when the following happened;
Villa fan I know is up the bar and shouts his order to the bar staff, unintentionally pushing in front of two women.One of them turns to him and says "I see you're a Villa fan,did you go down the match today?" The guy said that he had, that we were shite and that we were gonna be relegated etc". At this point she flips and says to him "Do you know who I am?" (She was rather worse for wear, due to drink I suspect). The guy (taking the P) said "yeah you're Emile Heskeys mom" and then she went into berserker mode, "I'm Jack Grealish's aunt, don't you know who I am?" At which point, I reckon everyone in the place knew who the deluded bint was.

I hope he got a selfie :-\

Talking of Grealish, my nephew saw him in some pub in the Arcadian Centre last weekend. He was being very flash buying drinks all around only for his card to be declined. Apparently he looked very embarrassed, poor thing.
-
Excellent!
-
You can't buy class
-
I should have also said that the deluded bint really was his aunt, and the other woman was his grandmother. I know, as they used to live near to me.
-
I didnt know that was his grandmother
-
Cracking story. Great performances all round from the Grealishes this season. Honourable exception for his Dad unless anyone has information to the contrary.

have heard some none too complimentary whispers about him but hey ho, no-ones perfect. Say no more other than Jack would appear to be a chip off the old block

I remember hearing his dad interviewed before the cup final on Radio5. I thought he came across as a bit chippy and arrogant rather than being modest about his son's achievements which of course at the time, was he had played well in about 5 games. He hasn't played well since bar the Leicester first half
-
I've been led to believe that I'm the great-grandson twenty-three times removed of King Henry the something or other. I might try the "don't you know who I am?" line at some point in the future...
-
I reckon the players are a fair target for ridicule after their performances this season and the woman in question deserves ridicule after her performance but I'm not sure it's a good road to go down slagging off people's families for 'things we've heard'.

To be fair, if I had a son that had played 5 mins in the first team at Villa, I'd buy a t-shirt with his face printed on the front, and get 'THIS IS MY SON, WHO PLAYED FOR ASTON BLOOD VILLA' on the back, and probably never take it off.

I should have also said that the deluded bint really was his aunt, and the other woman was his grandmother. I know, as they used to live near to me.
Not that it's important, is the Aunt on the Mom or Dad's side? Which pub by the way....somewhere in Solihull I'd guess?

One of the most boring, soul less pubs around. Hate that place, most seem to stare in to their warm beer contemplating ending it.

Yet she'll probably be on the next series of celebrity big brother.

no different than any other weatherspoons , i used to go in there before going over the road to the fox to watch villa away matches. I think lee hendries relatives drink in there too

I had no idea where the Hornet is so I searched and the first thing that came up described it as "Low-lit, traditional pub with pavement tables, serving real ales and all-day pub grub."
Sounds nice so I looked again to find this which made me laugh out loud.
"food was was nice, but as I was eating I found a hair in the food. Now this happens sometimes I accept that. The waitress was fine, and so was the bar man.
After about ten minutes the manager came over with the big fairy attitude, by then the hair was gone along with my appetite.
He argued about non of his staff having hair similar of which I described. Anyway I got a 70% refund.
Talking to the locals, they says its common."
Second thoughts I might not bother going.

If you have a hangover it is a good gaff getting the hair of the dog down your neck early doors.
