Every time we lose an FA cup tie.
I remember many of the above but for me two stick in the brain:West Ham 1 Villa 0 FA Cup Quarter Final 1980. It was going to be our year. We had held them brilliantly for 90 minutes. Then Ken McNaught handled? and Stewart scored from the spot. Unbelievable.Sheffield United 2 Villa 1. 14th Feb 1976. I had started college in Sheffield the previous year and had seen the Blades thrashed several times including 5-1 at Villa Park. They had 4 points only by February and were bottom by a street. Villa go there, play abysmally and who should score the winner but Chris Guthrie, who must have been the most inept centre forward ever to grace the top division. Beyond humiliation.
Not sure if anyone has mentioned it, but the Coventry away game in 1990 when Platt buggered up his knee and effectively ended our slim title chances at the same time.
It was Mountfield. He didn't play again that season. The only game Platt didn't play was the last game of the season.
