1995 Jo'burg, Atherton's epic Test Match

Who's the Villa fan chasing him off at the end of the game?

Well, the picture clearly wasn't taken at Villa Park, so it might be Gregnash.

Check the Mercury from around then. I'm pretty sure they named the person under the story entitled "Hooligan causes Cricket abandonment. England Captain tells how he feared for his life!"

I was at that game.
There was a group of about 10 Villa fans amongst the travelling English.

That's not Graham McNulty. I used to know him fairly well late 80's/early90's, he used to drink in the Aston Tavern on match days before he was banned for life from VP.

If you mean why was he banned from VP, just Google his name + Dublin 1995.

He isn't, and the picture isn't him.
