Nice one Chico.  A bit before my time but no doubt my late Dad and Grandparents were in that crowd.

Can anyone confirm how many QFs we've been in since then (apart from not enough)?

There's some great stuff on that site.  Check out the links down the side to see more old Villa footage, including the '57 team bringing home the Cup.

It's great to see players old players that you have heard about in action.

So it looks like:-

1962
1977
1980
1990
1992
1996
2000
2010

8 QFs in the last 50 years - not a great record.
