Well done Dave.  Last away day of the season we should all go as you.  Do you have an actual superhero suit?

Well, I've run quite a few marathons including London five times but nothing like this has ever happened!

Well done Dave, I would have done the same - got into a huge hoe down a few years ago with a bunch of 16 year old school kids throwing stones at cygnets on our local canal as I was running down it. They refused to stop and thought they could just outrun me when I decided to make a citizen's arrest. That was their biggest mistake and I managed to hang onto three of them until the police arrived. Earned me a piece in the local paper and a thank you from the RSPB! Oh, and a visit to Accident and Emergency with some nasty cuts to my mouth and face...

great story, with a  happy ending,

wonder if strongbow will be willing to give you a few free cans for the  good publicity, worth a try

Dave, well done. Are you now doing to wear a claret and blue Super Hero outfit to games? My suggestion is going with claret underpants on the outside, although you'll a bunch of moaners on here saying that Villa should always play in white shorts. Also, maybe your brother could play you're trusty sidekick "Strongbow", and have a can launcher as his weapon.

I bet he was stunned, what a waste of cider.

Anyone see the Villa fan in the Thunderbirds outfit behind the goal on Saturday. Perhaps that was Dave?

Marvellous, especially the bit where your brother twatted him with a can of Strongbow.
