[conman]

Does anyone else find it hard to believe that Hollis would meet Pearson somewhere so public as a Warwickshire pub?

It might be true if they do nice food in the pub

[conman]

Pearson very close to signing, allegedly

I was quite young in 1987 when Sir Graham took over. At what point of the summer was he appointed?

From memory as soon as the season had finished

The season ended on 9th May and he was appointed on the 18th.

I thought it was in June 1987.

Things were massively shit, he came in was instantly a breath of fresh air. We didn't storm the division but gradually got ourselves sorted, for not a huge investment challenged for promotion. It tells you that even from the depths of despair the situation can be rectified. It won't happen immediately but it is a very long season and we need to improve over that time so that we are well placed for promotion.

For what it's worth my Dad met David Moyes at a pub in Lichfield about five years ago. My dad begged Moyes to sign for Villa. Moyes told my dad they were selling Beckford to Leicester. So it does happen.

Might have been a 2 for 1 deal with Hollis being a bean counter and all that?

I met Jimmy rimmer in a cafe in Swansea once so stranger things have happened. Admittedly he had packed in playing 10 years previously. If I met him now I would beg him to come back and go in goal for us.
