Ron Saunders- 80 today!

[steamer]

My greatest Villa memories are supporting and following the teams that Ron built.
You were an inspiration to my generation of Villa fans. May you have a 110% day and would you bet against Ron reaching 100 ?

Happy birthday, Ron. We may never see the like again.

Happy birthday to The Boss. Three teams who did the business, we should have kept him for another ten years.

happy birthday mr saunders you gave us some of the best days of our lives. loved it when the "saunders saunders" chant went up and it sounded like the whole ground was doing it. if only you was given your wish of being in total control of the club like fergie was at man utd then i feel we would of been challenging not only for the league every year but the european cup as well. i can remember your parting words that every single footballing position in this club is covered in triplicate from 1st team to youth team and i can see it being messed up within 3 yrs, how right you were.

A shining example of everything that was, is and should be what every manager of Aston Villa should aspire to.  I had the honour of shaking his hand at the reception after the Eamonn Deacy memorial match back in August, it put the seal on my Villa watching career to date.

Many happy returns  Gaffer.  My eldest grandson has the privilege of sharing the same birthday, happy birthday to him too.

Blimey thought he was a bit older than that, happy birthday Ron!

One of my favourite memories of the last few years when he came onto the pitch before the Manure game.

Wonder if he's been back to many games since?
