Erdington born, John Oliver who hosts HBO's brilliant Last Week Tonight is a Villa fan.
No he isn't - he's a pretty dedicated and vocal Liverpool fan.

Not that that makes Last Week Tonight any less brilliant.

You're right, Dave. I only found a few links to him and Villa but looking now there are plenty with the Scousers. I'm more than prepared to lose him if we can keep Jessica Williams.

Does make it less brilliant in my opinion. I think he's pretty good in that but I reckon I'd enjoy it more knowing that he was one of the good guys.

Erdington-born Liverpool fan?   Guess he's not that smart afterall.

Both his parents are Scousers. Guess he had no choice.

Just watched this and spotted Greg Hetson guitarist in Bad Religion and the Circle Jerks. Found one tweet where he mentions us. This possible celebrity fan will be of interest to Rancid Custard.

This makes me very happy.

I think there is - and has to be - a moral code that all miscreants get their just desserts in soap operas. Baylis alluded to it himself in a recent interview, although he hoped the storyline  would play out a bit longer yet.

It is a rule in Corrie. Not sure about the others but the writers and producers of the superior soap have mentioned it numerous times.

Villa had a mention in Corrie the other night. Young Simon was playing a game on Xbox or something, and the other team were thrashing Villa. Sigh.

C.f. Deirdre Rachid (think she still had Samir's name) and the "Free The Weatherfield One" campaign that went "viral" after John Lindsay duped her in 1998.

Whatever about justice always being served in soaps I'd be surprised if a secret has ever been successfully kept between character and viewer on any of them.

The local team 'County'. Which reminds me that I haven't heard much about Walford Town lately. Since Arthur Fowler died nobody else seems to care about 'The Wallies'.

As said both his parents are scousers, if his dad is a Liverpool fan then don't see anything wrong with it to be honest.

Someone needs to send Mila Kunis a Villa shirt.

Didn't Scott Mills' sidekick talk her into supporting Watford?

She doesn't like yellow, asked if he could give her a purple or blue shirt instead  8).
