The strangest thing happened today at my school. I was wandering around the Year Two class, reading some of their stories and generally having a chat, when one of the boys (who is no Villa fan) piped up "Aston Villa won't be rubbish next year, they've got two really good players". Glossing over the first of his assertions, I asked him he thought our best players were. I assumed he'd say Benteke and, oh I don't know, Agbonlahor or something. To my surprise he answered "Benteke and Gary Gardner".I don't know if Gardner has featured in Shoot magazine or something, but I still found it quite a surprise anyway. And I've promptly put his name on one of the end of year awards.
