Quote from: Luffbralion on May 07, 2026, 04:23:20 PMThe first semi final I ever went to was back in 1970. Third division Villa v Manchester United (the team of Best, Charlton and Law, who had won the European Cup two years earlier). The first leg ended 1-1 at OT.For the return, nearly 60000 turned up at Villa Park. Kidd gave United the lead, only for Andy Lochhead to claim the equaliser. In the second half Pat McMahon scored the second. The noise from Villa Park must have been heard right up to Manchester and down to Wembley. I have never known an atmosphere quite as good as that night. Let's recreate that tonight.Let's believe, roar the Villa on and get through to the final.Yup - I was there and it was A.Maz.Ing.

Lindelof starts.
