If it's 'We've signed who'???...no-one's mentioned Keith Leonard was an unknown with Highgate United but he went on to become a good player, that season with Little in the promotion year is etched in my memory....Hillsborough when we won 4-0 to get promotion is my greatest Villa away-day.

I was going to say de Builde, but someone get there already!

Who was that young foreign CB O'Leary had on loan and never played?

Signing Frank McAvennie was gutting because I felt certain that we wouldn't get Deano in if he was there. Thankfully we overcame that little hurdle!

Nothing ever will surpass the complete and utter disbelief as when by brother rang me at work to say we'd signed Fashanu.  In retrospect that was the moment when Atkinson's reign started to come to an end.

Geoff Vowden, Trevor Hockey,Colin Withers, Malcom Beard, Alan Curbishley and Trevor Hockey. Was just a kid when we signed all these and could not fathom out why we would want to buy a player from Small Heath.

Mortimer, I think Tommy Craig's goal was on his home debut v Everton in a 1-1 draw. An absolute cracker from about 30 yeards at the Witton End. He flattered to deceive and offered very little while he was here. I can't even remember who we sold him to but he was not missed.
