What an amazing match, can anyone think of a more dramatic end of a Villa match, where after 85 mins we were winning the match by a 2 goal margin and looking very comfortable and it ended like it did.

The 3-3 against Sheffield Utd in the Championship is the only other one that springs to mind.

The one that came to mind walking back afterwards was Leicester in 95, slightly different but the same catastrophic 'where the fuck did that come from' feel. That almost banjoed the season as well, we were coasting in mid table and that triggered a relegation dog fight.

And it's amazing to think that even though that was seven years ago, and that we were a mid-table Championship side at the time, three of the players in that side played yesterday (and played well, with Tammy scoring in both!)

Hard to put into words how big that save and goal where at the end. If we lose that game, it hangs over us for the rest of the season and effects everything.
