Transatlantic Villans...

Calling out to any and all US based Villa fans!

I know that US based villa fans are growing in number...and very quickly! too. A lot of 'exiled Villans' have already sought their fellow Villa supporting buddies and are members of the ever expanding fan groups springing up throughout North America. There are groups in California! Illinois, Texas, New York, Arizona, etc., as well as active support in places like Toronto in Canada.

Most of these groups are affiliated with the Lions Club at Villa Park and, as such, enjoy quite a few benefits not afforded other supporter groups.

If any stateside Villans would like to learn more about the various groups that congregate regularly to watch televised games, share a few bevvies, and generally discuss all things Clart & Blue, either post in here or PM me and I'll be happy to hook you up.

The Chicago, Seattle and Detroit Lions were all represented by their Chairmen at Villa Park and Swansea recently.

I know, I was invited along but because of work commitments I couldn't make it over. There are a group of us coming over in May - still minus me though

Congratulations on the new site. I am the Chicago Chairman. One correction. We were actually over for Cardiff not Swansea. I will be back with a few others for Hull and Spurs

Welcome CV. Fantastic to have you here.

I'm wondering if I'm the only one who, upon reading you are the "Chicago Chairman" had an image like this come to mind...

Ha, that was just prior to my incarceration in 1953 ;-)

Don't mess with me. Just sayin'

I'm proud to advise that I gave up smoking though!

Hey Simon! Welcome aboard our new venture, dude! 'Tis me, Rog in LA :) Need to get Rick Leong and the rest of the guys on here. It'll be a blast!

I was thinking more..

Nah...he's taller than that

Hey Roger. Yes, we can spread the word within the north American villans. I already posted a link in the Chicago FB group.

Excellent...I'll get it to the Cali boys.

That's very kind of you. Thank you!

Cali boys? Do they hang out at the Blue Oyster?

Erm...noo...they hang out at places like 'The Mad Dog in the Mist' pub in San Francisco, and 'The Olde Ship' pub in Santa Ana...and other great bastions of Britishness :)

WANT! Well I'd prefer a polo shirt of it.
