It was overlooked in the events of last week but Ted Small, former Villa stadium manager and the man who oversaw the Witton Lane rebuilding, has died.

I met Ted when we were travelling in Europe. He was a gentleman in every sense of the word.

Didn't  he save a lot of the Stained glass work from the old Trinity Road Stand from being demolished.I am sure I read he stored it in his garage then wheeled it out for the architects to incorporate into the new stand.

Edit - I think it may well have been his replacement Tony Diffley.
