VillaGoMarching Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 Vs Newcastle. Oakes, Nelson, Ehiogu, Southgate, Staunton, Wright. Draper, Taylor, Curcic, Savo, Yorke. We'd just been knocked out of Europe by Helsingborg. Amazing really, probably one of the first season I properly followed Villa. Every player to a man wanted the ball, confident with it and looking to go forward. Can't remember the final score but seem unlucky to go 2-1 down. Looked great going forward.

VillaGoMarching Posted April 6, 2012 Author Share Posted April 6, 2012 Newcastle just scored a 3rd before half time, and draper got himself sent off for 2 crazy fouls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daweii Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 That was back when it was ok to lose to Newcastle by more than a goal or two as they were seriously good back then.. That was back when they had front men like Les Ferdinand, Alan Shearer and Faustino Asprilla. I miss those days when we had a squad that could win the League Cup and give any top team a good run.
