I enjoyed reading this, I remember those times and watching the players.
Also, the legendary status of BL, it can’t really be appreciated if you weren’t there. Well, maybe it is, like Hendrix.
I also liked the reminders of the players around at the same time he was managing us, like Savo, Yorke, Staunton, young Lee Hendrie and the last loopy but totally globally brill goalie we had, Bozzie.
Also, Townsend, Collymore, Grayson, JJoachim and our very own Ambassador Ian Taylor. With others mentioned in the article, what a fantastic time to be a Villa fan. Thanks for the Cup!
Excellent round up of a distinguished career. I loved watching him as a player for the mighty Villa. May Sir Brian continue to delight us all in what he continues to do for the club for years to come, and many, many thanks.
Also to Dave Collett!
Er,
Just one crit. About the title, when I read it in the LHS column in here.
I thought, for a completely shocked moment, that Our Brian (he who walks on water) had Gone to join the HEITS!
Please don’t do that.
