I was watching it on Ceefax in a shitty pub in Tottenham…with my then girlfriend.

Final whistle at Spurs to stay up was pretty mental too

Great day out, good atmos in the Witton Arms and in the ground, winning there for the first time I think it was?
Recall a couple of our idiots going mental at the Villa mascot before the game who was walking around waving at the kids/crowd, but stopped and just stared, clearly winding them up more and hoping the stewards would throw them out.

I couldn't get a ticket so went in the Villa end. I ended up in the corner next to the city fans in the second half with about 7 or 8 other lads. It was a bit lairy at full time and the coppers let us jump into the city end to get out.
What hits home for me was ‘98 we were flying- had been spoiled with the likes of Moldovan, Keane, Dublin, McAlester…. then look what happened a few years later
We absolutely played them off the pitch that day , my brother ran a pub in Aston called The Britannia for a few years in the mid 90s and I did every weekend shift with him and seen some awful sights . Day of the game me and my brother and best mate went inthe Aston hotel and the pub was full of villa fans they recognised my brother and were absolutely golden to us before and after kick off Would of been a worldie if boetang had scored
