Love to get a copy of that. If it's the one I'm thinking it is. Then I'm in one of the photos standing on top of the crush barrier in the Clock end at Highbury on the day we clinched the title. What a day. Never seen more away support than I did that day.

Something I’ve been waiting to see all my life. I’m 59 and whilst I wouldn’t rule out living for another 59 years, it’s rather unlikely and so come on Villa get a move on. Champions of England, Europe, numerous large cups, it’s all been a fabulous adventure, punctuated with plenty of heartache but the cup that we’ve won so many times has now for 66 years alluded us. 
 

We’ve had it nicked more times than SHA   have won it, come on lads make Villans old and young joyous again!

That would complete it for me too.

No, but I  know plenty of lads in that one. Gez Flynn, God bless him. Black Danny, with the Villa Top on at the front on the left. He got that the week before off Tony Morley after the Middlesborough game. 

Great photo though, wonderful memories.  The one I was in is similar to this. I even remember what I was wearing,  a Levi red tag coat and Levi jeans, I'm on the barrier with a few black lads.

You know what, bruv? I have a sneaky feeling that I might be in it. Go to the right at the end, and look at the four geezers on the barrier, I'm quite confident that that's me,  between  the guy in the striped jumper and the black guy, leaning back, trying to keep my balance. I've zoomed right in, but still can't be 100 percent. 

Cheers for that, my brother.

Like I said I'm not a 100 percent it is me. You're talking 40yrs and I've been follicle challenged for twenty of those, so it's hard to remember what you looked like when you had hair. Still, like I said, great photo along with some wonderful, wonderful memories. I actually remember looking at that paper in the Ben Johnson pub in was the Wednesday after we had won the title, we were playing the noses in a testimonial. That's how I knew my picture was in it.

Incidentally, our current manager is the first to give me that Ron Saunders aura.

I forgot about the club. Imagine the amount of scraps they seen through their front windows.

Did you know Gez Flynn from Kingstanding? He was in the picture Kingman sent. Good pal of mine, sadly passed away a few years ago. Black Danny is there with Tony Morley's top on. Didn't half bring some memories, all great one's though.
