Had this made up when I got the piece of mosaic from the Trinity,







Followed the instructions from the tech section but pasting the link hasn't produced a picture.

You needed to put [ img ] and [ /img ] around the link (without the spaces).



Bit...blue innit?

Classic example of utter tat becoming a prized possession. My mom used to buy me all sorts of Villa tat she saw at car boots etc, and this one of the last things she bought me shortly before she passed away.



Those are from the 90's aren't they? Sure I had one as a child. Not a Villa one.

Got a scarf my mom used to wear on the Holte. 'Chico' stitched into it.

That's about it I think.

I had the France 1998 one, IIRC.

Got a few originals like that, my pop was pals with the photographer. They've all got details (dates, location, game, position on paper page etc) on the back.

Slight aside but who was the little fat physio we had at the club late 70's ? Was it Jim Williams ? Like a little munchkin .

I've got a Terry Wier photo similar to below but signed by all.



The Villa player in the middle row, three in from the left was having his driving lessons after my mother and got me the photo of arguably the greatest every Aston Villa team. I assume you all know who he is.
