That's just what I imagined you looked like, it's usually the complete opposite with people you're aquatinted with but have never met.

What a day it was too! It just seemed destiny from the moment we made the play offs and that it was our final. Sweet Caroline.
Dean Smith and that team will always be remembered.
 Up The Villa!

No, no Jon, just a bloke with the arm span of an Andean Condor.   ;)

4 years on Derby finished 7th in league one!

Thank You Dean Smith and the Aston Villa squad of the time.

It was such a great day out with my Dad. I cried, didn’t at my first child’s birth a month later, the outcome felt more precarious. As someone said it was the relief, keeping Grealish, everything. Lose and we lost so much. The crescendo of the most romantic period of the club with DS&JG surely…
