Watching Match of the day there and saw a load of us lot stood to attention when the players were coming out. Whats all that about?
 
yeah they were from cosford, a guy on my course was there they were handing out flyers to teenagers about the RAF
 
The RAF sponsored the game!? Ahh so Harry Staish could sit in the directors box and drink all the free beer and wine he could and get the match ball. Good drills.
 
don't be too harsh on those involved. Villa support Selly Oak big time with tickets and hospitality for wounded troops.
 
Randy Learner is not your typical yank club owner. Most clubs have a big money companies logo on the shirt but Villa have Acorns. It's a hospice local to the club for seriously ill kiddies. He seems to think good relationships with the local area are better than dragging in even more corporate money.
 
Didn't knock Villa. I'm fully aware of there work with charity. I was mocking the RAF sponsoring the match and Harry Staish cracking on with all the free food and wine, but he probably wasn't there so..... Dunno.
 
Have you noticed the recruitment advertising at the FA cup games as well? Lots of small, well placed posters getting TV air time.
 
Wrong shaped ball!!!! Rugby is what REAL men should be watching. But fair play to Villa for their support of Selly Oak
 
The RAF has full page adverts in lots of clubs matchdays programmes and I know the roundel is prominent in several parts of Pride Park.
