Just spotted on the Waterstones website that Gary Shaw is doing a signing of this next Saturday, 20th, at the New Street store. At noon.

I'll be there as well.

I thought the injunction prevented that?

I've received the pocket book today and I've remained impressed.
Plenty of vintage photos and drawings, it deals with the history of the club,  the best players,  the memorable matches, the tactics, the kits, and much more.
It's a very, very nice read, much superior to my expectations, let me congratulate with you Dave for your great job!

went round to my sisters for Christmas day, there was 13 of us all together, and because they are well posh they have 'table presents'

anyway my Son got the pocket book of Aston Villa, my sister had brought it on line,
i was well impressed, as they were with me when i told them that i actually knew the author, didnt mention how loosley

i got 'bridges of madison county' DVD as my table present, oh well some you win etc .....

very good read by the way, especially on a christmas day afternoon with a nice bottle of Port

Available down here in Waterstones Bluewater and Maidstone. Bought a copy for my brother (paid full price!) for Christmas, and then received a copy myself from the wife.

Very nicely put together book, and enjoyable read, although a bit disappointed Brian Little was not in the "Hall of Fame".

Any chance of getting them signed Dave please when I'm next at Villa Park.
