Probably Yorke. I've moved on to the stage where I can think of his goals for Villa with fondness again now. But at the time, he broke my heart. The fucking Fredo.

Same as one half of the first hero question for me - Andy Gray when he joined Wolves. I did have an irrational dislike of Tommy Craig though. I didn't see the point of him despite him being a record signing and me only being 7 when he joined.

Unsworth. Especially when the fecker scored at VP and ran the length of the pitch celebrating.

Not a problem for me. The Holte had given him a shitload of abuse, he scored than enjoyed the celebrations. Why shouldn't he?

Anyway, we beat the f*ckers 2-1, so who cares?

Pretty much the whole squad in 2015-16, especially bad Santa.

A rubbish man

I remember Nigel Callaghan being widely derided but I was too young to really understand the  levels of vitriol he attracted. For me it was  Collymore.

Andy Gray for joining Wolves.

Mark Walters playing for Liverpool and blowing kisses in front of the Holte End when he scored for Liverpool.

Didn’t care for Frank McAvennie when he played for us on loan.

Really don't like Platt now, although too young to really remember his time at Villa

As above, a number of the 2016 squad. The Brummie trio, guzan, smiley bacuna, bennett. Add DOL and TSM2 to that list as well.

Had forgotten about Bennett, who seems to dispise us now. Maybe he will get his dream move to Blose one day.
