Radford Boy 26 Posted October 2, 2022 Report Share Posted October 2, 2022 Former asst manager of Aston Villa FC sadly passed away in Melbourne Australia at the age of 92. Roy was right hand man to Ron Saunders when Villa were crowned first division champions in 1981 and European cup winners in 1982. Roy was a fellow member of Kingswood Golf Club here in Melbourne and was a great friend and a true gentleman. You will be sadly missed Roy. Rest in peace. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Oztalgian 2,857 Posted October 2, 2022 Report Share Posted October 2, 2022 He provided the much needed continuity for Villa after Saunders had one of his many falling outs with club chairmen when they won the European Cup. One of the many 2IC's that never got the kudos due to them Quote Link to post Share on other sites
