It’s certainly been a roller coaster ride being a Villa fan in the last 55 years. Never sustaining periods of success or miserable failure for any serious length of time. It all feels very different right now. We have owners, management, players and fans in complete harmony for the first time I can remember.

I think the home match against Bayern will easily beat it. Champions League, night game, against opponents Gary faced in our most famous victory, plus the celebration the club has already announced. It's going to be something else.
