For book signings anyone can gain entry. He will be to the right of the door by the entrance and besides can’t say anymore that the door staff pay attention to the season ticket cards.

I'm half-way through this. It is well worth a read. It is not a literary (or editorial) great, but it really is extraordinary to read about his journey from miner's son to Villa star. Frightened of his own shadow (but feisty in a strange way) until he got on the pitch where he had no nerves. Also throws some light on the KM culture now under scrutiny. It must have been like being a squaddie for apprentices.

Not sure of the time for Sir Brian’s book signing but you could make it a double whammy by getting to The Aston Tavern to get a copy of Rob Bishop’s book ‘Euro’s & Villans’ . Tweet below from Rob with the details:

Three @AVFCOfficial legends - Gordon Cowans, Tony Morley and Des Bremner - will be signing copies of Euros & Villans at the Aston Tavern on Saturday (15th Dec) from 12.30pm to 2.00pm. The book is a limited edition of 1982 copies. #AVFC

Went first to the tavern for the euros book. Only wanted £3 entrance even if going in and out for the book. Rang through and explained to the landlord dnd it was then sorted but the pinky fella on my he door had a right strop on him

Did anybody else go to the evening with Brian last night at the walmley club? Superb night and I can't wait to get in to his book.
