KjParton Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 I don't think Sunderland was the semi - I believe it was the quarters. We then went on to beat Blackburn in the semi's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blandy Posted November 14, 2012 Moderator Share Posted November 14, 2012 remember losing 10-9 in a shoot out to Colchester, midweek, in the league cup in maybe 1979 after winning the first leg 2-0 at Colchester we contrived to lose 2-0 at home, then lose the shoot out.

Wainy316 Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 Yeah Wimbledon is the only defeat during my tenure as a Villa fan andfootball had only just started pricking my interest then so I don't remember. The West Ham one I don't count because we won the tie, so therefore I have never seen Villa lose a penalty shootout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted November 14, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted November 14, 2012 Didn't we go to Pens in one of the cups last year? Or am I going crazy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chappy Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 Didn't we go to Pens in one of the cups last year? Or am I going crazy? Nah, league cup we beat Hereford then got knocked out by Bolton early doors and FA cup beat Bristol Rovers then lost to Arsenal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wainy316 Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 Didn't we go to Pens in one of the cups last year? Or am I going crazy? Most recent (competitively) was definitely the Brad Guzan show up in Sunderland, so yes, you are going crazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raver50032 Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 Sorry to be a pedant - but the loss to Wimbledon actually occurred in 1992-93 season. We drew at home 1-1, wearing our lace up kit (which we only had in that season), and I believe it was Kevin Richardson who missed the penalty (in the heavy fog...) at Selhurst Park in the replay shoot out. For the record, even Aston Villa cannot fully remember the kit we had in 1992-93. The merchandise booklet from the shop shows it as a '1990' retro-kit. Even the club is denying it's own history. By a country mile, the kits Villa wore from 1990-92 and then 92-93 and 95-96 were the best kits in the league at the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's so strange. I absolutely believ you, but I have this nagging thing in my brain saying we've been in another one since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AshVilla Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 We do not lose penalty shootouts when Guzan is in goal I must admit Sorensen was great at saving pens as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogso Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 Didn't we go to Pens in one of the cups last year? Or am I going crazy? Maybe you're thinking of the pen Guzan saved at Bristol Rovers in the FA Cup last season, during normal time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P3te Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 That's so strange. I absolutely believ you, but I have this nagging thing in my brain saying we've been in another one since. we had pens in a friendly in the states this preseason if that's what you're thinking of?

briny_ear Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 Also, i think it was 9-8 on penalties, wasn't it? We saved our best that season for the next round where we went down 1-4 to Everton without the trouble of a penalty shootout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
