Happy Birthday Tone..... a great player, I personally loved the European goal(v Dynamo Moscow ?) where he ran the length of the pitch.

I still get nervous watching that. Just before he puts the ball in the back of the net the ball bobbles on that dodgy pitch. That was such an important win and the experience gained I really believe gave us the belief to go all the way. Who'd have thought the lad we signed from Burnley would turn out the way he did.

Happy birthday, Tony.

Just thinking that, loved his reaction to the first goal.

My favourite ever Villa goal by one of my two favourite ever Villa players (Paul McGrath being the other)Tony's other goal in that game was a bit special as well - a volley from 18 yards.

Damn, I bet that penalty/penalty save was a brown trouser moment.

I used to live in Kingstanding in the early 80s, and every time we went to Sutton Park we'd look for Tony Morley's house - we heard he lived somewhere on Westwood Road.

Never saw him though.  Happy birthday, Tony!

My hero from that era, also. When I used to stand on the Holte I regularly had arguments with the father of a schoolmate of mine as to how good he was, as he didn't rate him, although I'm not sure to this day whether he was just winding me up.

No 66, TS.

Many Happy Returns, Tony.

Happy birthday super tony
You were part of the team that took us on the most amazing journey ever that started with the first game of the season in 1980 and ended in Rotterdam in 1982 a truly magical time that I hope can one day be repeated.
God bless you a true villa legend

My first hero. The player I wanted to be when I grew up. I have so many happy memories of kicking a ball around the back garden pretending to be him.

Have a great birthday Tony.

The goal at Goodison in 80/81 is one of my top 5 of all time.

Happy 60th Tony
