Cheers Dave - good old Smudgger (RIP)  very underrated player when he was with us
I thought 1978 for Ken Swain - speaking of underrated full backs .....................

without the 4-1 Wednesday  evening match.  All the fanfare for the two Argentinians - Villa  played them off the pitch. 

Remember a  game just before Christmas in the late 70's as  well when we featured on  Match of the Day  we were so much in charge complaints were sent to  the BBC whose highlights tried to make out that there were two teams out there.

You havent mentioned the the 1-0 FA Cup win in 1992 - that was a classic Villa performance. We played them off the park with only one goal to show for it. We murdered them.

A great night. I was right behind the goal when Yorkie prodded it home.

Mind you, even if it was an option I'd still have voted for the 2-0 in 1990.

Nothing has happened in the intervening years to make me change my mind.  Although last season's win was crucial.

The 2-0 win which took us top of the league was a brilliant night. David Platt was so brilliant that night, I had the same feeling I had when we beat Liverpool in January 1981.

On the flip side, went there a good few years back in the Spuds end with my little lad and a Spud mate. Marcus Allback put us 1 up with about 15 minutes left and we fecking lost 2-1 (also remember the 2-3 on Tommy Craigs debut when 2 up with 15 left at VP). Going out the ground a fecking steward grabbed my then young lad and said "up the spurs or something shite like that". Told him to feck off as he is a Villa fan and he said poor fecker lol

2 down, Lineacre had a penner to make it three, Spink saved, we pulled one back just before half time then went mental second half. Five different scorers. Great day, that.

I agree it was a great day and remember coming from two down to win 2-5 but I have absolutely no recollection of Lineker missing a penalty. The midweek game in 1990 was special too and I was convinced we would go on to win the league. But the FA cup replay when Yorke scored the winner was a great night. I went into work the next day and a lad I worked with had been watching it in  his local and told me he did a double take when he could see me clearly 'giving it the big un' on the final whistle. I had recorded the game so went home that night to watch it and for about thirty seconds of Dave Bassett's post match opinions the camera was on me acting like a mad man.

For me, as a 12 year old at the time, the 4-3 in Jim Barron's?(correct me if I'm wrong) caretaker match. I had Fenton printed on my red,green and black Muller away shirt the next day!

I think you are correct. As for that shirt, I won a pool competition in that shirt and didn't even know the next day when I woke up

[The Man With A Stick]

Just watching the 91-92 video and the 5-2 game was fantastic.  Especially Spinksy saving a penalty from that smug jug-eared Leicester goalhanger.

Can we have Tony Daley back please?  What would he be worth in today's market?  Someone would spunk £60m on him after watching a highlights DVD.

78 for me to, first time to white hart lane pure magic all the argie hype and we fucked em off
Just memorable days

I remember us winning 1-0 at WHL around about 1966, not fully confident on the date.  Lew Chatterley got the goal.  You would need to have been alive back then to realise just what a result that was as we were so bad and they were so good.

[garyshawsknee]

I'd vote for the only one I went to, LC in 94. Got soaked but didn't care, great night out.

[dcdavecollett]

Dave S, that would have been one of Colin Withers's greatest games, keeping a clean sheet despite Villa being under terrible pressure for most of the match.

What a great thread, so many to choose from.

I was at the 2-0 table topping game, the league cup quarter final and the 4-3 Jim Barron game.

But my favourite I wasn't there for, the 4-2 win in 2000. 2-0 down, pull a goal back from the spot and break out into a goal of the season competition, with each goal outdoing the last.
