Saw his reactions on Monday, he is a true Villa fan, he suffered when Derby scored, same as I did.

[@darrendavis7613]

[@user-fq8vl1bt8r]

David Smith lad you’ve been going at this for a month of your life you must have something better to do come on

[@user-fq8vl1bt8r]

David Smith brum

[@NoycieBrv]

At least he knows what he's talking about, unlike David hammer Cameron

[@shanekelley7682]

Aston Villa FC is a traditional English football club, Everton too. Sunderland, THE big clubs of days gone! We all moan about Chelsea and City, but if it happened to our club, we wouldn't moan!

[@jimmacky207]

David Smith i think he means traditional as in the fact villa created the football league

[@penfloyd]

Go Villa....and Prince William

[@s7m975]

True club and true prince 👑

[@malcolmsandford5335]

What a lovely down to earth guy and yes he does know his football.

[@jordanthfc8039]

I have a similar story. Everyone at school supported either Liverpool or Man United (I'm Australian, we have a lot of bandwagoners) I chose to support Spurs 🙁

[@fgfam4805]

Tottenham spurs yeet

[@marcosaquino8709]

You guys don’t support your local clubs?

[@jordanthfc8039]

@@marcosaquino8709 most people don't, i do though. My profile pic is when my local team, Perth Glory won the league in 2019

[@hakc97again]

Liverpool I get because of Harry Kewell. Were there any Evertonians who were Tim Cahill fans?

[@rorysmith2415]

I have an idea for football. As you have influence over soccer and sports policy in the UK. How about lots of extra cross border club cups on top of domestic and European football? They already allow Welsh and Northern Irish sides in the Scottish Challenge Cup. So for instance how about a club trophy or series of trophies with Scottish, Welsh, English, Irish, Northern Irish, Canadian, USA, Isle of Man, Cornwall, and French club sides. Or even Scottish, Welsh, and Irish Sides applying to join MLS? Or European conferences in the NFL, MLS, NBA, NHL, NBA, and MLB. Or Cornwall having their own international rugby union side. Or the Comish, Welsh, Scottish, and Irish have a united Celtic Nations cricket side? Like the West Indies is a united cricket side of various nations.

[@dvd7826]

Prince William and Harry look nothing alike. Are you sure they are full blooded brothers

[@thteytirutiwisio4577]

DVD 78 oh you're special

[@s7m975]

Thteytir Utiwisio bro they don’t have to look alike to be brothers!

[@jixuscrixus1967]

They’re half brothers. Before Harry came along Diana was already hooked up with her ‘riding instructor’ James Hewitt.

[@jixuscrixus1967]

Al Nero: Your mom told me (and she talks with her mouth full).

[@arminiuszmazowszanin2670]

Most people follow by success and environment pressure. Prince doesnt have to. I also became Feyenoord fan when Feyenoord was mid table team. Clubs like Chelsea PSG Man City makes me wanna vomit not support them.

[@dylanmurphy9389]

Liverpool were mid table when I started following, loyalty pays off
