Notts County FPA featuring ex-Villa players

Don't know how but I just found this on t'internet that may be of interest.
Check out Big Dick Edwards, Steve Sims, David Hunt and Tommy Johnson amongst others on the Notts County former players association website here:
Good to see Dick Edwards looking well despite his health problems.

David Hunt was the worst player I've ever seen play for Villa

Agreed.
But the lump of a right back we have today runs him a close second.

Thanks for posting that Oscar. Good to see Jackie Sewell still around and looking good at 85. How many others of the '57 cup team are still with us?

Great post Oscar. It is good to see that an old club like Notts County value their former players as much as we do ours.

I agree and I don't remember Steve Sims being much better. What I do remember is him spending the first half of the promotion season taking all the free kicks we got deep inside our own half, regularly kicking the ball out of play from them and then examining his boots to see what could have caused this.
