30 seconds in, don't think I've seen or been in a crowd that went so mental,

Dog Shit-  Agent Ridgewells own goal. And Cahills goal at VP.
Olbeiyun- 3 points when it really mattered in April 1981
Wolves- The 4-0
Coventry- putting the final nail in their coffin to send them down.
Walsall- None. We never beat them in 4 attempts in the 3rd division. Little bastards.

Couldnt agree more Kingthing...

Everyone said the Super Kev was the best victory because it was the first one...

But watching that still makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up...

87 minute

We'd just cleared it off the line..

Had been on the rack for most of that 2nd half...

& that header right in front of the travelling faithful....

Proud to say i was there that day... Dont think ive ever celebrated a goal like i did that one...

Fucking priceless memories!!!

Up The Villa!!

1 other thing i'm not sure if anyone else has noticed...

As the ball hits the net, you see one of the Stewards along the divide jump up & go nuts... Hilarious!!!

SHA - Gary Cahills over head kick was a brilliant goal, first home win over them and a very important win
Tesco wankers - Hitzlespergers goal was better than sex
Dogheads - Heskeys goal this year was incredible!

My favourite bit was Dion Dublin's header that laid out Gobby Ravage

Bizarre as 1) that helped cost us the match and b) he never even connected properly.

Still, takes all sorts.

Has to be Frankie Dettori riding home Authorized in 07.  He'd been trying for so long to win the big one. I don't mind admitting that when he crossed the line i shed a tear or two.

oh wait, i think i may have misunderstood.

He didn't lay him out and we went on to lose the game.
Savage did exactly what he set out to do, goad our players into losing the plot.

Yes, it was fantastic when we descended to their level.

 But what did you do at the time, shake your head sadly or give Dion a standing ovation?

If we're talking specific moments then get that photo of Olof pumping his fists in the air as he was subbed during the 5 - 1.

Launched a tirade of abuse towards Savage because I thought that the only reason Dublin would have reacted like that was maybe some sort of racist comment, turned out not to be the case (or at least Dublin has never said so), so he just lost the plot.

I was trying to post that on the previos page but couldn't so I gave up.

My favourite football photo I think.
