Post by: Legion on December 13, 2010, 06:50:01 PM
From Pravda (http://www.avfc.co.uk/page/NewsDetail/0,,10265~2243486,00.html):

Quote
Gabby Agbonlahor* and Jonathan Hogg* will be paying a special Christmas visit to the Villa Village store on Wednesday December 15.

The claret and blue duo will be participating in an autograph session as the club shop gears up for the busy festive period.

The appearance will take place from 3.30pm* to 4.30pm.

Don't miss this fantastic opportunity to meet your favourite Villa stars and get your replica shirts signed in time to give to your loved ones on Christmas Day.

The players will ONLY be signing merchandise bought in-store on the day.

Fans are advised to arrive early as the event is expected to be very well attended.

Both the Villa Village and New Street stores stock hundreds of great gift ideas this Christmas.

Check out the extensive range by clicking here (http://www.astonvilladirect.com/stores/astonvilla/default.aspx?portal=villa).

Agbonlahor has been a massive fan favourite for many years after proving himself as one of the best strikers in the Barclays Premier League.

He made his way through the club's academy system to the first team and is now a vital member of the team.

Hogg, meanwhile, has just broken into the team and impressed many with his all-action displays and tough tackling.

The 22-year-old made his top-flight debut against Manchester United and did a fantastic job in the centre ground during the 2-2 draw.

Both players have just signed new deals with the club and will be integral in Gerard Houllier's plans.

Don't miss out on the chance to meet them this week.

*Please note players and event time could be subject to change.

* Salifou and Osbourne at 1pm?

Be nice to see Sidwell put a shift in down the Villa for a change.

They could not let Dunne sign autographs.   He would give away the pen.

Now Dunne* is scheduled to appear. Unless it clashes with his WeightWatchers session.

Would be funny to see how Mister Stay Puft fends off the questions about bust ups with Houllier.

He'd agreed to go, then suddenly shouted
'FEED ME Seymour'
and disappeared.

I know Villa put caveats on the OS that players and times could change but there were people there who had bought shirts etc and waited for an hour or more expecting Gabby to be there then were let down.  What's his excuse this time? Got a bit of a sniffle?

The lad getting something signed in the 5th photo looks like that lard-assed midfielder who once wore our shirt. Can't recall his name...........

That picture of Bannan signing a Collins shirt reminds me of a phone in radio show Mark Radcliffe did about shit pop memorabilia, the winner was a lad who had a copy of Bat Out of Hell, signed by Des O'Connor.

I thought exactly the same.

How refreshing to see a footballer wearing a Swatch instead of a diamond encrusted, solid gold piece of Bling. Nice one, Eric.

It is to difficult to write your name AND smile at the same time :)
