I've seen Villa at Boundary Park 3 times
87 - memorable moment in a 1-0 away win was a McInally bicycle kick in the 6 Yard box, where he missed it completely. The Chaddy Rd end laughted their cocks off
90 - the worst moment of watching villa. We had clearly not scouted their previous matches and went out of the cup with a limp
92 - Garry Parker had just joined and I'm sure this was his debut (oh to have a player of his vision these days). I'm sure this was a 1-1 draw
Add 1971 Oldham 0 Villa 6 - Ironically Villa had been knocked out the FA Cup the week before in 1st rd by Southend,so some things don't change. The Oldham game was Jim Cumbes debut. Brilliant day pissed down all afternoon.
I was also there. Don't forget, Andy Lochhead scored a hat trick.
I remember that well. There was talk that a load of Man City fans were turning up.
They turned up at Bury, the week before the 1971 LCF. One was waving a bike chain. I had to run under a Police horse to get out of the way, then got whacked with a rolled up paper by an old bag who called me a hooligan. There were no more that 250 Villa at that game.
