That’s a lovely read. I agree about that goal, that was the day that I thought that we would win the league. It remains one of my favourite Villa Park goals.

Under Unai the sky is the limit and there will be goals that actually mean more but in a less important way.

Me , my brother and cousin (all young lads) thought Dennis thought he was offside, he looked left and right. We thought he was looking for the linesman flag, he was probably looking for Shaw or Withe, he didn't need either  as it transpired. The age old argument  , who was Villa's greatest player..Warring, Hitchens, Lochhead ,Little, Gray, Shaw , McGrath or Gordon Sidney Cowans (my vote) . It will never be settled. The greatest ever Villa captain, however, is a open and shut case IMHO ..step forward Dennis Mortimer.

Great read by the way.

Great read as always.
Made me think what would a Villa captain have to do to overtake Dennis Mortimer and be regarded as our greatest ever captain. I genuinely cannot think of anything. Even if he won the League and the European Cup and some more silverware and was our captain for at least 10 years, I'd still pick Dennis.
