He also played Upton Park, which led to the classic line, "If the ICF are so hard how come they let a load of Christians take their ground?"

Aston Villa is my religion;
Villa Park is my Church.

I remember the stripey sixth former who ran the Christian Union at school trying to get people to go to this and saying some derogatory things about Villa in his spot in the school assembly. He got booed.

My mum has been to Villa Park twice. The Corner Flag restaurant for my dad's birthday, and to see Billie Graham

They could book this bloke if they fancied doing evangelists at VP*



*By "doing evangelists", I mean burning them in a wickerman thing and stealing all their money or something.
