Just watched it, superb. Jimmy Rimmer part was a hard watch but what a legend.

Anyone on here go to the Anderlecht away match?

Is it going to be repeated?

It's not in their schedule at the moment, and is only available on demand until the start of June. Really annoyed at that, as BT boxes failed to record it because the Rangers final went to extra time.

It’s in catch up now and I believe it’s on again on 26th at 6:15 pm.

It is and a recording reminder is set.

Could you imagine that we could of been the team that lost both FA cup and European cups !!!
We've lost more FA cups than Small Heath have won

And we've lost more European Cups than Arsenal, Man City and Tottenham between them have won.

Just watched it, superb. Great soundtrack too, brought back so many memories of my 16 to 17 year old self.

The sound track was nailed on for the music. Especially when we had to play Dynamo Kyiev in Crimea! Depeche Mode.

Even footage of our supporters saying how bad the hotels were there, top marks to those lads.

Just watched it. Bloody marvellous. Some eye openers in there also, like the bottle of brandy Ron had in the dressing room before every match which he encouraged the players to take a pre match swig to put some "fire in the belly" Seeing Jimmy Rimmer in tears was gut wrenching but he did more than most to get us there in the first place especially with his miraculous save from the penalty rebound against Dynamo Berlin. Tony Gubba's interview with Tony Barton after the game was horrible. Barton was smiling from ear to ear obviously and Gubba asked him if he'd seen the programme and would he be keeping it as a souvenir. He the heartlessly pointed out that Saunders picture was in it instead of his. You could see the joy drain out of Tony Bartons face. I really felt for him, that was totally unnecessary. But it was a great watch warts and all which bought back some long forgotten memories. We were Kings of all Europe and that can never be taken away from us.

Absolutely superb documentary, shame it can't be bought, I'd watch it again. The quality of some of the archive footage was far superior to some I've got on DVD. Especially the footage from the final day of the season at Highbury. Was the implication from Sid and Morely that they visited a brothel in Rotterdam the day before the final?? Really felt for Jimmy Rimmer, he doesn't seem to realise how amazing he was getting Villa to the final in the first place.
Absolutely. He was immense for us. I bet he doesn't even know how much he means to us. I'd love him to hear us singing the 12 days of Christmas song about the European Cup win. He's the only one who's name is sung in every one of those 12 verses. And that interview with Ron Saunders after the home defeat to Ipswich is the stuff of legends. And i'd love them to find room in or around the ground for a banner which simply reads "do you wana bet against us" With Ron's picture wearing his light blue tracksuit top with the claret lion on it.

Jimmy was an unused substitute in Utd's 1968 winning team so probably extra miffed to miss out again

Praying this finds it's way to YouTube or similar.

I've screen recorded this to .mp4, quality is  good..

Because the Rangers game ran over on BT, it's 2 files. If anyone can join them together, it's just under 2 gb.

There's a Reddit thread discussing viewing the programme.

That was only my second trip abroad, if you discount the annual trip to the family in Dublin, and we had an absolute blast. Left on Monday night by coach, arrived Tuesday and had a blast with 4000 Villa fans in Brussels then home on the Thursday afternoon. The skirmishes in the ground were well documented but there was no trouble elsewhere (that we were aware of) and we had good crack with Anderlecht fans in the centre after the game.

For 2-3 days it was absolutely brilliant bumping into people we knew from home, all following the Villa for years, including dodgy away days. We were 19, champions of England, there was a vibrant music scene in Brum and we were on the way to becoming champions of Europe. I just wish all the younger fans who’ve known little success in the past 25 years get to taste something like this. It was intoxicating.
