Remember that but was maybe a year or two after Saunders went to them? We played them at their place within a 2 days of him actually taking over there and I remember it being a great day. Filthy atmosphere. Villa were in the Kop and all over. We sang "You must be **** mad, Saunders, Saunders" for 90 minutes (so much so that it made the front of the Argus - minus the obvious word) and, right at the death, Peter Withe latched onto a shitty back-pass at the Railway End to win it 1-0. Happy, happy days!
For those youngsters on here it must sound pretty unbelievable and i suppose it is. Our most successful manager, in our most successful year leaves the club when we are League Champions and in the European Cup Quarter Final and ends up managing the shit on Feb 18th. 2 days before we play them. Absolutely incredible.
