Unfortunately I can't share people's fondness of their first game. Mine was 1979, Manchester United and we lost 3-0.

Hey, that's my first game, give it back!

It would have to be The European Cup Final. I was only twelve and my old man was a doghead. Tight fucker.

I'd love to re-experience the 1977 League cup run- in particular the semi final v QPR at Highbury -Sir Brian's finest night. second choice would have to be the Old Trafford final replay -total emotion and a last minute winner!

94 LC final against Utd. I've never been so emotionally involved in a game ever. I was wreck in the build up and even at 3-1 was still just about keeping my bowels in order. Great game, my best memory as a Villa fan (since circa-90) so far.

This for me but for different reasons. That and Leeds in '96 were the only cup wins in my lifetime so far and I have very vague memories of '96 because I was so young, so I would enjoy reliving that again.
