    Happy birthday God.

    Not online yesterday so a belated Happy Birthday to the best no5 we or anybody else ever had, Paul Mcgrath. One of the few p[layers that it was an absolute privilege to watch, thank you My Lord.

    The finest defender I ever saw wear the shirt, never had a bad game and part of our most successful side since 1982

    Almost unique at that time, as apart from Hansen, most CBs were uncouth hoofers.
    Just as comfortable in midfield, he was the best of a generation, and since imo.
    Not sure that his knees would’ve been able to withstand the butchery and pitches of the 60s & 70s, but I’d like to think he would of still have shined.
    After 'he who walks on water’, and maybe ‘Sid’ and ‘Crops’, he is the best that I’ve seen in a Villa shirt.

    Yeah that "us" is at the centre of why I like him so much, as well as being a fabulous player of course! Nice to see you back on here Iwuz.
