I was at a freezing cold and icy Stamford Bridge for the replay. We were shot but somehow took th e lead only to concede a very late equaliser and then lost in extra time. I remember one of their goals squirming past Spink who looked like he may get back to scoop it off the line but it inched over the line. It was a pretty depressing time to be a Villa fan in that era.
I really liked Walters and was convinced he, Cowans, Rideout and McMahon would form part of a great rebuild. So the ensuing disappointment was hard to take.
