 He was born in 1932 and it says 1972 in the corner of the pic, and pretty sure that's Norwich players, although I have no idea who any of them are. So depending when in the year it was taken he was 39 or 40.

40

*looks down at 34 year old body and I slowly weep.

When I tried on the new Villa top, I declared I liked it but the only problem was it made me look like I have a beer belly.

My partner just looked at me and said "Well, you have got a beer belly".   

I prefer to think of it as my abdominal carbon sink. ;D

Older than that?  He was 42 when he took over in 1974 that picture is around then I think maybe ‘75 Charlie is still playing for us so must be no later than 1976.

He’s manager of Norwich in that photo, mate, ‘72 I think

Edit. Just seen your follow up post 👍

Unai looks fit, healthy and ready for whatever da fuq this mental club can throw at him! Amazing what a fortnight in Santorini can do.

He looks like he got younger. Most Villa managers age years in a matter of months. Emery got younger, faster and fitter. I fucking love him.

Ole ole ole Emery !  He can take us to the top 5 and champions league placings. There's a great chance of a trophy and glory in the cups next season.
It's really only one way this is going. Positivity flowing.
I also feel Emery is a man of dignity and honour and would never leave us for Saudi Arabia or another club.
He's here for a legacy project.
El Maestro is my hero!

If they tried to poach Emery I'd take that as a declaration of war, personally.

When the new champions league format comes into play will be looking for that as its 5 places in England. I 100% think this is the target , progress and aim for owners and Emery
We are on course for this with the projection

The new era starts now https://twitter.com/avfcofficial/status/1677608708308647937?s=61&t=5gNHKFDBiIG50p8ei1L0Vg

There's something in the Basque/Luso DNA that gives them the strongest hair combined with bad haircuts that I'm still struggling to work out. I'm waiting to see if Unai gets a Brummie haircut whether all his hair will fall out. I blame Severn Trent.

I enjoyed his press conference, whenever it was.

He’s not shy in saying we are after trophies, he’s not almost embarrassed to say it like previous managers and players, he states it as fact. I like that attitude.
