Up until April 2016 it's been my sanctuary for many, many years. Thank you all.

That's a lot of new manager threads!
Well done to Mac for starting it, the admins for keeping it going, and everyone for posting.
 This forum is one of the few constants during the highs and lows of supporting the Villa.

Happy Birtday H&V. And thanks Mac for making it happen. This site makes me laugh every day. Even the one in 10 of John Croft's jokes gets a laugh.

Congratulations and thank you all involved, in particular Mac and Dave. 

There can't be many achievements over the last 20 years that Villa fans can look back on with pride, but this site is most certainly one.

Sadly my employers might not share that sentiment, as probably one of the main sources of distraction I can attribute my lack of productivity to. But who gives a shit, they've just paid me off so I'm off out on the piss to celebrate.

Living for over two decades overseas, the site helps me feel like I still live down the road. Great job guys.

I find more responsible comment from the contributors on H & V than most other parts of the internet. I know that's not saying much, but well done anyway.

Many congratulations, I've visited other fans forums and without being biased, H @ V is the best by a country mile. Here's to the next 20 years.

H&V - I was going to say that you're my favourite waste of time, but that does a great disservice to what you actually provide.  The intelligence and erudition displayed on here make it a haven from other areas of the net. It's also funny and passionate; a place where opinions and differences are generally argued in a reasoned manner. I sometimes wonder if it would lose something of what makes it great if we had a successful team to follow...

Happy 20th birthday and thank you to everyone who keeps the show on the road.

Well done Mac and to all that help keep and have kept it going. It's a fantastic site for so many reasons, from football, music, TV, politics, humour, a personal crisis to fixing your kitchen sink.

Happy birthday!
