Brian Green

[Stu]

Condolences to you and your family, Damon. Your dad was a great poster on here and his stories were hilarious. I remember one in particular when he mentioned he did some ‘painting and decorating’ for Harold Macmillan. I wish I had met him. All the best.

Great post, Lucas(?). Thanks for the insight.

Very sad news, thoughts and prayers are with friends and family.  I didn’t know Brian but enjoyed his posts and always thought of him as being my dad’s double.  As well all his gardening advice he once told me a simple technique to destroy a wasps nest with the minimum amount of trouble. A worldly man who was a real part of the H&V family.

Brian will be missed. My own Dad died a few days before Christmas so the world is poorer for being without two dedicated Villa fans.

I'm so sorry for your loss Damon and Lucas. Brian was just a lovely man and I loved a chat or exchange with him.

He was kind, funny and a friend to anyone.

He was serious about the Villa and a shrewd judge of a player (I'm sure he spotted Ollie Watkins at Exeter....)

I liked him and miss his posts on here (and yours too may I add).

May he rest in peace and I hope he knew just how well liked he was.

All the best to you

Yes, that rings a bell. There were so many posts when he said something utterly fascinating in passing that really needed expanding on, but then alas, the conversation had meandered elsewhere...

He gave me some sage advice around 20 years ago when I'd split with my mrs, and we shared the 'seeing of the light' after an until unheralded Benteke came off the bench to destroy Norwich in the league cup.

Like others, I wish I had met him. Damon, sorry for your loss, all the best.

I'm very sorry to hear this, Damon. Condolences to you, Lucas and the rest of your family. It was nice to meet you and your dad at the H&V birthday bash at the Bartons what I'm convinced was only about five years ago but almost certainly nearer 15 or 20.

Awful news, very sorry to hear that. My thoughts with your family. Didn’t know your dad personally, but came across as an absolute gentleman on here. Rest in peace.
