Beautiful name, brilliant club.

I even love how we say 'The Villa'. From time to time, exiled in Bristol, I get asked about saying 'The' Villa when I say things like, "I'm not around on Saturday, I'm going to watch The Villa".

It's a perfect opportunity to remind them there are lots named United, City, Rovers, etc. but there is only one Villa.

It's a privilege that I was born and grew up 3-4 miles from Villa Park and that they are my club - as they are your club too. Up The Villa!

Dear Mr. Purslow,

Please DO NOT hire algy as the club's (brand) naming consultant.

Yours, BV
Apologies all - I've let my family down, I've let our fine football club down, I've let this forum down, but most of all I've let myself down.

If we were talking club nicknames,  yes, we are far behind.

My favourite being Morecambe, The Shrimps.

It's ok. Have a drink, take some time over the weekend and you'll be right as rain on Monday.

100%.  I always remeber my Grandad saying 'up the Villa,' every time we visited.  I had stickers with it on on the frame of my bed.  I love how UTV is still used so much - a phrase from a bygone era that still resonates with me.

Yep, UTV was a response to a sneeze growing up in my household.

Continuing the reverie, I love that my grandma had a system to keep my grandad informed of the latest score as he worked on a Saturday afternoon in his opticians shop in Cotteridge, however many rings for a villa/opposition goal etc.

Grateful we had those glory years with him including our greatest day together 4 years before he died, likewise our best chance since now, to get back up there.

I say it all the time when out and about when you see a young lad or girl in a Villa shirt. Always gets a smile and a reciprocated reply.  It sounds like   something you would see in a 1940s or 50s football comic and probably have but is still very relevant today and it's use should be encouraged.

I do the same. Wherever and whenever, the presence of another enlightened soul should always be acknowledged with it.
