Anyone remember the score?Lost 1-0, iirc Spink came off the bench and had to play up front at the end. 23/12/95. Hendrie came off the bench and got a straight red. Ray Wilkins was playing for QPR and was trying to get the ref to let him him stay on.

I drove back from Paris overnight for this game as we were coming home for Xmas and it was mighty frustrating - Ludo Miklosko had one of those games where he stopped everything we threw at him. Wilkins did indeed act like a sportsman too.
Looking it up, yep it was his last appearance. Some going for a keeper, second appearance for a club is a European Cup Final and their last for the same club more than a decade later is as a striker.
Lee Hendrie is a bit of a twat, let's be honest.

Petulant little shit with terrible attitude. Couldn't stand him, still can't. The fact he is often rolled out to the faithful as a Villa Park Legend infuriates me no end.

Could and should have done better in his career, but didn't he play over 300 league games for Villa? Not a bad record I must say.

Of all the Villa players I've seen, he's up there easily on his own as the one I dislike most. He's my Steve Hodge.
