John Posted November 30, 2022 Share Posted November 30, 2022 23 hours ago, TRO said: They were laughing at us when we won the European cup and the League.....people in denial, always find something. I don't remember many of them laughing, as we walked around with smiles on our faces that just wouldn't go away in the early 80s. They were pig sick and were hurting big time, although they tried not to show it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine the one Barrett has on, with ‘yoghurt’ instead of ‘muller’ would fetch a fair few quid. I believe that goalkeeper top is as rare as rocking horse plop, too.

That is why Villa Park never officially reached its capacity of 80,000 when 76,588 came to watch Villa v Derby in 1946. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember when we played Sunderland last game of the season when we got promotion back to division one, 57,000 were there that day and that Witton End was full of Sunderland fans.
