I remember not so long ago when we were on a par with Everton. Sigh.

Last time we played Chelsea at home we didn't concede 5 as far as I remember.

Makes it all the more frustrating knowing that we are capable of really excellent performances.

3-5 to Hull City? I hope not!

Don't worry, we wouldn't get three in a million years...!

Had my doubts on Costa after he disappeared a little towards the end of the season and through the WC. Clearly the injury really affected him because this season he has really looked the business, and every bit the player he has become over the past couple of seasons.

Villa beat Everton 6-2, having been 6-0 up. A Sunday, it was. Platt and McGrath played. Bonfire Sunday in November 1989.

Correct. Everton I believe were managed by Colin Harvey, had Southall in goal, played in a silver kit with some sort of stripes thing going on. They had Stuart McCall in the middle, and Sheedy in that side. It was a good team. We were 3-0 up at HT, went on to score 6 and then 2 late Everton goals including an OG from McGrath. Also had 2 goals from Olney

One of my favourite ever games. Back in the days when there wasn't much football on and we were live on The Big Match or whatever it was called. The build up was all about what a threat Mike Newell was. Ian Ormindroyds best game for us.
