well done Dave.  Chico was chucking the cider down his neck that afternoon.

I was so nervous when I met him that I couldn't think of anything interesting to say. I just said "Our cat's called Chico Hamilton"

Bless him, he replied " that's nothing, Dudley Zoo named a polar bear after me in 1975"

It's not him. It's another H&V perennial fave. Turn to page 45 of the West Ham fanzine for the answer.

Who is this?
The picture is taken shortly before Villa bought him for £10,000.

That's Con Martin

His son, Mick, used to live down our road when he played for the Albion. Drove a great big, Sweeney Style, white Granada

Chico.....spot on, it is Con Martin

This picture has a total of 6 people associated with Villa over the years. 5 played and one was associated with us in a non playing capacity. Anybody going to get all six ?
