1-0. The Dean Saunders "offside" goal.

No Mr Cooper and Greaves, you can't be offside in your own half!

Particularly like the Lambert removing the decimal point line.

Yes, can't remember the score but it was a 2-legged one in the cup-winning campaign of 93/94.  Paul Tait got sent off didn't he?  For pushing Richardson(? was it?) into the crowd, but don't remember if that was the home or away leg.

Home leg

The wanker then went on the have a SOTV t shirt on show at Wembley when they won a windscreen wiper - proper player, footballer, err postman

Tosser of the highest order, only surpassed by King of tosser Robert Hopkins

This sums them up perfectly, this one of their legends, not a framed picture of winning a tinpot trophy, but of the t-shirt and headlines.

Has John Frain got a framed picture of himself missing that penalty in the first leg?

Always remember a quote (I think attributed to DW) and was pre their jammy 2010 LC win over Arsenal (at least they had the decency to get themselves relegated the same year - karma is good)

Think of the biggest games you have attended as a Villa fan in your life - they will be winning cup finals or big matches that meant something

Ask one of them and it was either a game against us or a defeat to someone else

ViD; Spinky was injured, rather than sent off, wasn't he?
