Many thanks to SoccerBooksLtd for the reminder in Cup final week. If you love the pomp and pageantry of the old tournament, this is the book for you.
The Aston Villa 150 Years book is a virtual sell-out. The publisher has only eight copies of the 1874 print run left. I have a few spares but these will be auctioned to raise more money for the Hannah Storey benevolent fund.curtis-sport.com/online-store/A…
I'm proud to have compiled testimonial brochures for two of Aston Villa's greatest players, Gordon Cowans (May '93) and Paul McGrath (May '95). #AVFC
He was best known at Albion and Coventry, but Cyrille Regis also served Aston Villa well for 2 seasons. This excellent new book reflects on the whole of the great man's career. It can be ordered at curtis-sport.com

The Boss (aka John Gregory) popped in yesterday and bought a copy of the 150 Years book. When I told him that 50 percent of profits are for Hannah Storey he paid over the odds. Lovely gesture. If you would like a copy at the regular price (£30), go to [email protected] #AVFC
Great to see you, and thanks to you and Steve for your help with raffle tickets and 150 Years book sales on behalf of Hannah Storey
Always a great night, in aid of a great cause. I'll have some copies of the Aston Villa:150 Years book with me, if anyone is interested. It costs £30 and is a limited edition of 1874 copies, with 50pc of profits going to the Hannah Storey benevolent fund.
Many thanks to Darryl🦁, whose late bid of £75 has won the Acorns Children's Hospice auction for a selection of Villa gifts. Thanks also to Chris Woods for donating the gifts and to everyone who made bids. #AVFC
Just a few hours remaining in my auction to raise funds for Acorns Children's Hospice. The current highest bid for this selection of Villa gifts kindly donated by Chris Woods - washbag, notebook, pen, keyring and drinks cup - is £70. Auction closes at 5.00pm. #AVFC
A different auction in aid of Acorns Children's Hospice. A selection of Aston Villa gifts - washbag, notebook, pen, keyring and drinks holder (all new!) - donated by Chris Woods. Bids, please, by Wednesday. #AVFC
