Everton: Retro Day

Our supporters have designated Saturday's visit of Everton as 'Retro Day' in B6.

To mark the occasion, we're encouraging fans to bring balloons and streamers to create a special atmosphere and get Villa Park rocking.

As founders of the Football League, the club prides itself on its traditional values.

And what better game to celebrate everything claret and blue than the most-played top-flight fixture in English football?

You could don the classic European Cup winning jersey to mark that memorable night in Rotterdam.

There's also the 1971, 1994 and 1996 League Cup final shirts as well as our infamous 1993-95 green away number.

Gear up for this season's FA Cup final with the striped jersey from the 1957 success in the same competition.

Retro graphics will be used on our big stadium screens with black and white replays of the key moments from the clash with the Toffees.

This week's copy of the Villa News & Record will be retro-themed to add to the nostalgia from yesteryear.

Head back to the 80s as 'Theme from an Unmade Silent Movie' will be played before Craig Armstrong's Escape as the players enter the field.

I feel a little sad to be missing this, all the left side right side stuff, Tarzan give us a song.....

Then again, as I am in Barbados watching the cricket, not that sad.

Maybe the Everton fans can join in with some of their traditional racism.

Is the team wearing a retro kit on Saturday because that would be great.

Recreating the 6-2 would be nice.
