Apologies if this guy has already been mentioned but was mentioned in a podcast I watched recently that Eanna Hardwicke (who will be playing Roy Keane in the forthcoming Saipan movie) supports us.

Seen in the Villa away end at Palace last night: actor Alfred Enoch. Never knew he was a Villa fan.What a good egg.

Every other actor who appeared in Harry Potter seems to be a Villa fan.

Spizz is on 6Music with Craig Charles at the moment, a bit of Villa talk.

Eanna on why he supports Villa: It was completely by chance. My brothers were at their first football match in the early 1990s, and it was Oxford United against Villa - they were with a relative who was an Oxford fan.

Villa were a big team then with lots of Irish players like Steve Staunton and Paul McGrath, so they went 'OK, we are Villa!' And I copied them. We have no connection with Birmingham at all, but I am very happy to have inherited that - although one of my brothers is now a Liverpool fan, and the other one doesn't care.

I heard him on Five Live on Saturday explaining why he was a Villa fan and doing a Traitors inspired game which seemed to include Owen Thompson who turns up on Villa On Tour.
