Being at Villa Park mid 70s, about 200 of us in the (then) open end in a crowd of about 40,000. Leaving the ground a big guy shouting “if any of you f*ckers runs on the way to the station, I’ll do you myself”. No one did. He was too scary…
I was there too, but prefer to remember its debut at Derby where we won 2-0 with Steve Hunt scoring on his debut (and obviously a goal from Ian Wallace).
I think that we are all put on this earth with a higher purpose.
Mine is to educate the world that the 5-4 against Norwich was NOT ON BOXING DAY!!!
Please repeat after me - it was played in December 27th having played at Villa the previous day (which was Boxing Day).
