That's about all I can come up with off the top of my head. Not bad really as I have difficulty remembering what I did yesterday most of the time.

All correct I think EIA  Peter Aldis was born in Kings Heath.

To make it interesting, seeing as how I am unable to get to Wembley, in lieu of a prize I'll donate £3 to Acorns for every question that is answered correctly. So I stand to get stiffed for £45 if all are answered.

So far :-

ALITA - None correct I am afraid, although you do get credit in that 1975 is an anagram of 1957.

Sorry for the difficulty, that's what you get when we only win the thing every 58 years or so.

7. Close enough to be correct. We borrowed shirts from Small Heath but red not blue. I thought that was the hardest question.
10. Correct in the end Bramhall Lane, 5 Times. SoundofVillaDelphia credited with getting there first.
12. Not quite, waiting for a better answer.

Exeter77
3. Not Ray Graydon

SilhillVilla

1. Correct, three times (1929,1934,1974)


SoundofVilladelphia
Did you put a stamp on the card?

4. Stoke City at Molineux, Correct
10. Bramhall Lane, 5 times, Correct

Archbishop
Compared to what I was expecting, a used envelope is fine.

Am I allowed to ask a friend?

[DeKuip]

2 was the home tie with Bristol City
3 - if it's not Gerry Hitchens who someone said earlier then are we looking at Schoolboy internationals - so maybe Norman Ashe or Alan Baker?
8 - Stan Crowther played for Man Utd in the FAC semi-final v Fulham at Villa Park the following season, having already played for us in the 3rd round that season.

Good quiz.

2: Bristol City

I think me and Lou should get half of question seven right each seeing as I got the team correct but she actually said red!

[Rudy Can't Fail]

13. 1980 Villa Park hosted three semi final games. West Ham v Everton, then two replays between Liverpool and Arsenal.

[Ron Manager]

Number two is either Luton or Bristol City. I will go for City I think.

[Ron Manager]

No 3   I reckon its Norman Ashe who I am sure scored for England Schoolboys when he was on Villa's books in some way.

and no 8 is Billy Myerscough but I cant remember the second bit.

[Dave Cooper please]

The answer to No.6 is Tottenham in 1961.

Only because I was convinced every answer would be Arsenal!
Thanks, CD
