My abiding memory of that day is, unfortunately, being stopped for speeding on the M54 on the way home from the match, and getting the only 3 points I've had on my licence!

90 m.p.h., so I deserved it.

I drove back so fast from Luton once after a defeat, that we got back home quicker than we used to from Villa Park.   I think I was doing 110mph at one point, that's  how pissed off I was.   

Very stupid and very lucky not to get nicked.

My first game I went to and one of the best days of my life.  I had waited so long to see a game a Villa Park will never forget walking into the Holte End for the first time seeing the pitch before me. 

Two weeks later and 17 years ago today I went to the League Cup Semi against Tranmere still the best game I have been to.

Thanks for posting the link.
