Wishing a happy birthday to our very own Mr Gordon Cowans - It was a pleasure to watch the silky skills of "Sid" and I'm proud to have briefly met him once
As you would expect the author of the "Jack Reacher" books and fellow Villa fan Lee Child puts it just right:
“I have met President Clinton and President Obama. Tom Cruise flew me in his helicopter. I have had dinner with kings, lords, sirs and Oscar-winning actresses.
“But best of all was an invitation to meet Gordon Cowans at Villa Park. I treasure the memory. No Villan gave me more pleasure to watch. I was glad to get the chance to tell him that.”
