Albion was an early kick-off - I'd reckon at about noon as back at my girlfriend's (now wife) in time to be dragged back into town to go shopping...
I loved Kent Nielsen. Didn't BFR describe him as "lightning slow?"
My first season of going regularly. My highlight were the win over the champions Arsenal at christmas. The cup tie against Port Vale sticks in my mind too, hammering them 6-0 when it pissed it down all day.
For me we were never the same after that 3-0 defeat against Wimbledon but along with 92/93 and 95/96 this was my favourite season following the Villa.
I went to every game bar Palace away for some reason. I'd say it was my favourite season following the Villa - some of the away days highlighted in other posts were just magical...as were my flares and pastel sweatshirts...and long hair (sob)

You wore flares in 89/90?
Well let’s call them baggy then. Either way they were roomy!

Flares were big again around that time, just not the brown, polystyrene, low waist bell bottom types that Des was wearing.
The Firm had a scene filmed at Palace ( you could here Villa being sung in background ). I think it was in our promotional season.
Ah, realised this has been discussed now, should learn to read better before I post.

Yeah it was 87/88 season bit of a moody day off the pitch if I remember correctly .

Was? What’s with the past tense?
