Sometimes I've never even had to do that. Just given my name and address. Wide open to fraud.

But presumably Our Nige could just say he was talking rubbish. Impossible to prove in that case I'd have thought.

Used to have a season ticket behind him in the upper Holte. Genuinely decent man.

He actually said a few weeks ago he hated our policy of selling all the good players and replacing them with lower league ones so I thought that was him posting under your username Saunders!

I have worked at a polling station,its hard for that to happen.

How is it?

All i have ever had to do when voting is show a polling card.

I worked in a polling station, a couple of times when I was younger and agree with you. All you can do is check the card against the roll to make sure they haven't already voted. If it says Mr P. Walnuts on the card and it hasn't been crossed off, and you look to be the right gender you will be able to vote.

You don't even need your polling card anymore. They just ask you your name, you give it, they cross it off their list and give you the voting paper.

I was trying to work out what the Villa shirt mentioned in the article was. After careful consideration, I don't think it is one. It looks like the Aston Martin logo, if anything.

They used to sell MON shirts with the Aston Martin logo on outside the ground. Maybe one of them?

Ah yes, good shout. I reckon that's probably it.

On now on Last Night of the Proms. No Villa shirt like he had on in rehearsals. Part-timer.

Looking forward to seeing him out there.  I reckon he will do the Liverpool song for the crack!

Not my thing sadly. I can appreciate the amazing talent but it bores me to tears.

Until they do all the hits at the end. I love that, always have.

A bit of publicity for Acorns as well. Good man, Nigel!
