Bodymoor’s caterers will need to re-assess the weekly food shop, the guy’s the size of two Mike Gattings

I saw him early last year at a Neil Diamond tribute act at the Alex in town (this is not an elaborate set up for a pun).
It was in the bar before and I'd noticed him and was racking my brain for about 10 minutes before it dropped who it was.

Maybe it was the love of 'Sweet Caroline' that sealed the deal for all parties.

Happy with the appointment, experience of the league and will no doubt freshen some of the training sessions up.

He has moved about a bit since he was sacked as manager of Leicester. If he is a Villan, it would be good for at least one of his family to stick around for the long haul and we need more female fans.

Basically, my plea is: Shakespeare's sister - stay.

You worked hard for that. I'm not sure it was worth it.

He could write a book about it.

Hey come on now, I don't see anyone coming up with any better.

Man put his arse on the line with that pun, even if it was a bit of a Richard the Third.

I'm pretty sure he is/was a fan of Sandwell Town. Went to Perry Beeches Senior school with two people I know really well.

He said on a Q&A with the Watford official site he was a Villa fan growing up just before they sacked him. I only know this because a mate of mine and I were saying about 2 weeks ago that he would be a good replacement for Terry, and when I googled him i stumbled over the interview.
