Just found out this excellent video has been fairly recently uploaded to YouTube: The Official History Of Aston Villa (1989) (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZMzCb8sfo1A).
Great stuff.
-
I still have the video somewhere. Watched it so many times back in the day.
-
Still got mine and, I know where it is too. Watch it from time to time.
-
Didn't the original VHS mix our team photo up with Burnleys?
-
Still got that, aint got a VHS player though and probably never will now.
Not getting rid of it though.
"Withe & Shaw went together like eggs & bacon and they sizzled"
I think that's what Gerald Sinstadt said.
-
Johnny Dixon - what a great bloke.
-
I've got this and others of other season VHS tapes from the late eighties early nineties, including the two league cup wins. One day I will finally get round to having them converted to DVD.
-
I used to do my own VHS season review back in the 80's taping all the clips off central news, MOTD etc etc.
-
It's got the actual interview with Ron Saunders asking "Do you want to bet against us?". Also Eric Houghton explaining how the Villa team was picked before each match up until the 1930's. Our first ever manager was in charge when Villa were relegated for the first time.
-
I wore that video out!
I had it for Christmas the year it came out and watched it over and over again. So good to spend the last hour or so watching it again.
What a wonderful club we support.

Managed to get a copy that had been copied to a dvd on ebay but that was some time ago

Yes. I have it.

If it is the video I have in mind I was disappointed by one thing: there was an interview with Charlie Aitken recalling the wonderful League Cup semi final win v Man U in 1970 but no actual footage of that game. Other than that, I thought it was fantastic.

You just wanted to see yourself score the winner didn't you Pat?
