Happy 50th Gary Shaw (actually his 51st!)

Gosh, just older than me. Used to love it when him and Geddis played up front as always thought they looked dead cool together...all those blonde flowing locks used to look particularly nice against our all white away strip...

  Oooh listen to you .................. Chichester close to Brighton is it?

Saw him in the pub today before the game. Villa legend.

I was just about to post that.  How very dare you get there first  -:)

Many Happy returns to the great man,the reason for me having to endure so much joy and despair the past 30 odd years.

My mate's sister really fancied him when I was a lad.

Unfortunately my sister didn't when he tried to chat her up in Bel Air (30 years ago). Still haven't forgiven her.

Congratulated him when we all saw him in the pub. He was hoping for a Villa win as a birthday present

When I was 15 i played against Gary Shaw at Jaffray Playing Fields, Erdington. (School match) I was a makeshift Centre Back that day. I didn't have a bad game but a blond headed forward scored three times -you didn't even know he was playing.

It wasn't until after the game they told me he was on Villa's books. Bastards.

Glad he got it.  Glad Alex got it for his birthday as well.

When he gets the ball he's bound to score!
Gary, Gary Shaw!

Happy times!

Happy Birthday Mr Shaw!
