All of them.

Exactly , can count his poor games on one hand and that is indeed something - the guy was immense and consistently outstanding.

Not for me , there were numerous league games in both runners up years ahead of that .

Probably Eastie yes. Reality is he had so many great games it would be very hard to single one out.

Not sure - he was awesome that day.

Anyone who can make Derek Mountfield, Shaun Teale, Southgate, Ugo, Kevin Moran, Phil Babb look much much better than they actually were - international class in fact - has something very special.

The Green Beret of Villa's troops past and present.

I thought he was a great former footballer, not a licensed killer.

I think that article sums up just how difficult it is for him to lead anything like a normal life in Ireland. He's in court after, frankly, making a tool of himself and yet there are still those using it as an opportunity to get an autograph. For someone so shy. To protect his health I really think he needs to move somewhere to avoid the constant attention.

I want to know why do the pubs give him beer and people keep buying him beers. It is simple - DON'T BUY BEER for people like George Best, Paul Merson, Tony Adams, Paul Gascoigne, and Paul McGrath. They can't handle it.

Sad to say there are still people who believe "One beer won't hurt you". Even sadder to say there are people who would happily buy Macca or Paul Gascoigne drinks all day in the hope that they'll get drunk and provide the buyer with a story.

Plus, their money is as good as anyone else's. A bar man is paid to serve his customers, not to warn them of what their habits may lead to.
Maybe he should move to the Isle of Man where he's unknown due to tv not being invented yet. Risso can keep an eye on him now that he seems to have a fair bit of time on his hands.
