His nickname from the lads basil was so apt  had to be the unluckiest fan on earth for getting thrown out at forest and Rotherham both times it was his thick cricket jumper with villa badge that probably caused the Stewards picking on him.  We all need cricket jumpers for the sty on Sunday

Again didn't know him personally but shared an "alright mate" in locations all over the country following Villa. He will be missed as will his cricket jumper.
RIP Cricket jumper Steve.

Genuinely nice chap. And always a delight to spot him in some far-flung away end.
RIP.

I didn’t know him, but I did point him out to my son away at Blackburn under Alex, on his second away aged about 6, told him this guy & his jumper go everywhere. Sure enough over the years we have seen him. RIP and prayers for his family
