Was it against norwich if I rememberber rightly?
Can I have the full story? Hodge also set up the hand of God goal didn't he?
Hodge got his chance at the 1986 World Cup in Mexico when Bryan Robson's body went kaputt (again). He came back to what was a poor Villa team, then on the eve of the Norwich game was reported to want out because playing for the Villa was harming his England chances.The next day, during the 4-1 defeat at home to Norwich the Holte End were on his case, chanting "Hodgy must go" and the like.Then the infamous feeble back-pass happened and the crowd turned on him even more. Understandable because from where I was stood it was almost as if it had been a delibarate act. I seem to remember Steve Hunt trying to molly-coddle Hodge during a break in play, his game had gone to pieces that much.Anyway, Hodge got his transfer the following December (to Spurs), scored twice against us in a 3-0 defeat at WHL and was later dropped by England.So much for the Villa harming his England place.
It was the Spurs.
