I never knew his proper name as everyone just called him 'Burnsy'.Didn't Kenny Burns do a shit once in someone's house from this board? or did I dream that?

I was really excited when we signed Nigel Callaghan. He'd always looked really good when Derby had been on telly.

The best player I have ever seen was John Charles and the crock of gold at the end of his rainbow was the tenancy of a pub, in Leeds I think. That in turn led to excessive drinking and the all too familiar sad end. However, that was considered to be a well planned exit from the game in the not so distant past. Players with less generous clubs got a newsagents.Anyone remember Craystons newsagents in Blackwood Road, Streetly. Arsenal and England.Oh yes! Many pennies worth of pocket money wasted in that shop!It seemed every shop I used to go in as a kid my dad would tell me it was owned by an ex-Villa player. I can't remember them all now but Billy Kirton had one on the College Road, and there was a chippy round there owned by an ex player too and I'm sure someone had a shop on Kingstanding circle. Then whenever we were it town we'd always spend time in Harry Parkes' sports shop on corporation Street - with a cricket bat as a door handle and all old Villa team photos hanging on the walls. I remember reading in Joe Mercer's biography that after transferring from Everton to Arsenal they allowed him to stay on Merseyside and train with Liverpool during the week so he could work in his grocers shop after training, then get a train to London on the Friday for the game. He was captain of England at the time!

He'd always looked really good when Derby had been on telly.Hmmmmm"I had a brilliant time being a footballer – I played for two great teams, Derby County and Watford, with great supporters.Well fuck-off then.
can't remember who but when I went to a Stag weekend in Swansea circa 2001 the newsagent I was in was owned by an ex-Villa player.
