I was there with my Dad who recently passed away aged 91 a lifelong Villa fan. I have just joined and have numerous photos,programmes,books,newspapers and scrapbooks of his that I know would be over the moon to share with everyone on here

My father in law went to Rotterdam on the ferry.

It was a Friday night - we watched it and went straight in the Parissiene and met friends who were Blues fans - we ripped it and they walked straight off and kept away all night!.
