Seeing the posts about meeting old players bought back a few memories. When I was about 15-16, one of my mates Kieth was the son of Mushy Callahan. We used to knock about with some of the youth -reserve players, among these where Charlie Aitken, Bobby Park and a kid called George Graham . George was always very aloof, as if he new he was destined for higher things He was right he did go on to do well, but he was still a miserable bugger . Onwards and Upwards Villaforever.

Mush Callahan what a great villa legend! After playing I think he became groundsman or caretaker? As hard as nails and think he broke a leg in a match and the following week broke another players leg! Days when you could tackle.

Kieth and Mushy lived in a house, within the grounds, I think it was about where the shop is now.
