Brings back memories when I got thumped by a fellow Villa 'fan' at the Hawthorns. Must have been about 1979-1980 and Pat Heard scored a free kick in the 88th minute. After all the celebrations I turned to look for my mate to see a beast with a Villa scarf tied aroung his head (rambo style) who stared at me and called me a F*****G C**T then hit me in the mouth. The fans seperated on ther terrace then a copper came up and the bloke who hit me then said 'that bloke hit me'! I protested my innocence but was threatened with a trip in a black mariah (Sp) if i didn't shut up!! To this day I have no idea why he hit me?!If that bloke is one this forum - You tw*t!!!

I drank at the Globe prior to the Robert Peel.Another great away day, spoilt 90 minutes on the pitch!!
