Boro 1981.
That was just about the best Villa performance I have ever seen. Think the score was 3 nil but we absolutely played them off the park. There we were just about to win the league and we were showboating for some of the game. Brilliant !

Played on 25 April 1981 and it snowed that night! We were good that day, but at my age I have seen many better performances....

Certainly on no occasion in the last two seasons!

One result from the M'ON era that sticks in my mind was a 2-0 win away at The Emirates and I remember going out with a couple of Man Citeh fans that night and we were all thinking never mind Aston Villa challenging for the top four we were going to be challenging for the title

It feels about a million light years ago now though...

Beating Chelsea 2-0 at home in 2007 was a real "feel good" game.  Zat Knight scored on his debut (I think) and Gabby got the second.  Seem to remember Chelsea being on a long unbeaten streak going into the game and us putting them away in style.

That's the "You're not special anymore" & doug shaking hands with Roman game. Jose left soon after that game if I recall correctly.
