Recommended Employment Lawyer

In my haste yesterday, I forgot to give due thanks to my lawyer, David Cooper of Cox Cooper, Hall Green. He is a very fine employment lawyer. If you were ever to need an employment lawyer, go to him. You can't go wrong.

Justice at Villa Park

As you may know, I was Aston Villa's official Club Historian until January, 2010. A matter occurred that resulted in me being dismissed from the post that month.

I contested my dismissal and the verdict was finally given in my favour at the Birmingham Employment Tribunal today, 25 February, 2011. Though this matter is over, I simply feel a very deep disappointment that it ever occurred and that it has been dragged through 12 months of unnecessary upset.

It was, however, a triumph for justice and commonsense.

Hooray for Houllier!

I have to say that I am very, very happy for Houllier. Although this is only a small step in terms of getting out of the mire, it is (I believe) a big step in indicating that his critics have got it wrong, albeit that it's early days yet.

You could only see by the glow on his face how fired up he was by this Villa performance and the team - those that he wants - are clearly playing for him. The icing on the cake was for the debutant over-priced striker to show that his signing may well be a masterpiece. Though, still, overpriced.

Three points on Tuesday would be nice to add to this feeling of well-being.
