No, he used to have a range of comedy miniature hats, policeman's helmets etc


Im sure I remember being in the away end at QPR once (Seaman was playing for them, which would help date it), and  Wolfie was spotted in the front row of the stand on the left, with the home fans, towards the halfway line.

We were chanting at him to put the police helmet on, and he did. These are the sort of things which make football so ace.

I think it was the last visit to Burnden Park which must have been one of his finest hours when he was parading around in the restricted view space next to the Supermarket going into his bag and pulling out a different hat or mask every five minutes.

I will always remember making the mistake of getting into a conversation with him back in the day at the Dell when we used to stand in that cage behind the goal. I did wonder why there was a wide berth around us both as he uttered completely unintelligible things to me whilst rummaging around in his plastic bag..

I sat next to him once on the Travellers club coach in the early 90s hes harmless but was a right pain in the arse to sit next too, he never shut up or stopped looking in his bag for various Villa objects and masks.

I bet he would be proud of the number of thread there are on here about him. You have got to give it to him, he has provided some entertainment over the years. Even the away Police must have looked forward to his visits.

Anyone remember chanting "shaggy shaggy" after the scooby doo character
80's home games from the Holte
Shaggy appeared walking around the pitch generally around the 60 min mark ?

Wasn't he one of the turnstile operators, I seem to remember he was always carrying a bag (of cash)?
