My dad loved Chris Nicholl.  Described him as 'a danger in both penalty areas'  ;D

I was 17 when he signed for us. It was the start of our great adventure. Third Division to Champions of Europe in 10 years, no one had ever done that , and in the modern age it will never happen again. Big Chris played his part in that magical period. Thanks big man.

What a lovely and fitting tribute to a Villa great  -  Well done Dave.

The League Cup Final goal will be etched into my memory for life.
RIP Big Chris.
