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!!!

1982, a few weeks before Rotterdam wasn't it? And no it wasn't me as I was only eleven at the time!

I had a good day out Saturday, drove up from Cambridge with the wife, I booked us into the hotel £55 for a double room upgraded for the night to  a executive room :)

I went to the game while the wife went shopping, first of all I met my Villa mates in the Sir Robert Peel a really nice pub with some nice beers on and a great atmosphere from the home and away supporters in there.

then came the game :(

we then went back to the same pub where my wife met up with us all, then the Swan and Rushes and then to a couple of others and we had a great night drinking and eating in Leicester and not a hint of trouble or aggression came our way.

I was a bit fuzzy headed in the morning though :)

I was at the game, and also went to the Robert Peel.  I drank at the Globe prior to the Robert Peel.

Another great away day, spoilt 90 minutes on the pitch!!

it was decent in there, we were sat to the right under the TV as you walked in.

Glad to "nearly" meet you Holte L2....:)

Not sure. I thought it was before we won the league (I was 15 so 1979-80?)  but my memory is fading of those heady days!

All I keep thinking about is Carl Douglas.

What has any of this got to do with table tennis?

Just checked on google - indeed it was 1982 on May 8th!

Should have done some curry house suggestions - go frequently to Leicester for grub

Desmond Douglas is a Villa fan
Can he play in an attacking midfield role?

Is he allowed to use his bat?

With little to cheer about, and little hope of improvement, I have noticed a progressively nasty edge to some elements of our away support shown both to our own, and others.

You really think next season we are going to get to the Quarter Finals of the FA cup by playing lower league opposition? Mad man.

You used to get the odd 'ruck' on the Premier coaches, late 80s early 90s which were usually broken up with the immortal words "Villa don't fight Villa"....Usually involved some pissed teenagers and an older guy who had taken the piss out of them.
