That site brings up about 20 clips which have so far been converted into digital form.
There are actually nearly 200 clips in the archive, most still awaiting to be converted. The descriptions given offer a mouth watering prospect if they all get done. Interviews with Doug in the early 1970s, signings of the Rioch brothers and Chico Hamilton, reports of 1970s boardroom struggles, interview with Vic Crowe after 3rd division promotion, lots of Saunders interviews etc. etc.

What I really like is that they are sourced from Midlands/Central News are so are all firmly aimed at the Villa fans of the day.
