Thanks for posting, Dave, and good to see the video of Bob. Really disappointed that I was not able to attend as a result of work commitments. Did you go?

Good - shame. I see that the couple who sit just in front of us in 'Lower Doug' M3 were there.

Slightly odd picture of Tom Fox graveside.

Nice job though.

To be accurate Villa archivist Laura Brett has been Laura Mansell for over a year now since her marriage.

Is it just me that thinks the headline is a cheap shot?
Maybe I'm just sensitive...

Nope. Unless the Vicar really did pray for the club to avoid relegation.

The ceremony was about one of the game's great figures, not about an ephemeral relegation fight.
