Got in the ground just before half time. Pandemonium broke out. From memory I think that was Thompsons header. Wasn't that the day someone painted AVFC onto the grass in creosote the night before? I'm sure that was the time when there was only about two turnstiles open for us to get in. Bloody scary. I can remember feeling like all the air was being sucked out of my body in the crush with police on horses forcing us forward.I finally got into the ground and rounded on a steward next to those bloody awful open air toilets telling him they needed to tell someone to do something as someone was going to get really hurt. Luckily my mate pulled me off him as I was so irate I would have got nicked, something I'm not very proud of but couldn't help after what I'd just seen.I still can't believe there were no injuries that day. Such poor policing and non existing stewarding. Every time I see a reference to Hillborough I think of that day. I can remember the win but that day is tainted by what could have been.Exactly as I remember it, Villabear.

The match - Bruce will have the players pumped up like being on Jack's stuff. A win is a must and will happen.Everything about Small heath is small and petty. They could win the world cup and still not be bigger than the Villa.As for the rivalry to the club (not the fans) Tescos is the biggest rivalry - this probably pisses them off as well. Anything that pisses Bloose off is good in my book.
