Villa 2-1 winners from that fabulous spell over Christmas 1989. Great goal from Platty.

Can still picture Mountfield's header from where I was standing down the front of the Holte, it seemed to take an eternity to hit the back of the net.

That's my biggest memory of the game as well - that and going absolutely mental when it went in.
