    My grandad, my dad, me, my nephew and on and on. It's my spiritual home full of lifetimes of memories and some of the happiest and saddest moments of people's lives. Thank you villa ❤️

    That Atletico Madrid game was something else... The scenes and noise when Collymore scored I shall never forget

    First game I ever went to was the AFC Bournemouth FA Cup game 2015, when Carles Gil scored that screamer and the atmosphere for me was something I’ll never forget, best ever time was the 2019 Play off final at Wembley and the noise was electric, and also when I was mascot vs Millwall and had the pleasure with walking out with Jack Grealish, a day I’ll never forget. I love this place, many memories made and long may they continue

    And its going to be even better with the rebuild..I have all the faith in the world that the owners will makes sure they keep that traditional feeling that the stadium is famous for..really really looking forward to eventually seeing the plans

      Unfortunately Villa's own 'Dr No', Chris Heck has cancelled the redevelopment . In hindsight Purslow was a man of vision like Rinder, Ramsey etc.

    That 23rd Dec 1970 League Cup semi-final - I was there too in the Witton End, amongst I think 55000 others. That was my first ever match.

    First visit to Villa Park in 1947 aged six. My father thought that 1st division crowds were too great for a young girl so it was a Central League game and we stood in the Trinity Road enclosure - no seating. My biggest disappointment was not being allowed to go Wembley for the FA Cup final in 1957. My friends from school and I had stood behind the goal, where the North Stand is now, to be as close as possible to our hero Nigel Sims. There was the time in December 1976 , an evening match, when Villa had scored five before half time against Liverpool. After that I moved away from Birmingham with my young family and got to see fewer matches. My five year old daughter told her teacher " Mummy is always bad tempered if Villa lose." She was correct.

    I remember standing on the Witton bank as a 7 year old, had no money so we used to sneak under the turnstiles, 53 years ago, my Brothers ashes are scattered on the hill in aston Park opposite the holte, so he can still watch the mighty Villa!!

    Best night ever was the semi final second leg against Blackburn. What a game. 6-4 on the night! I was in the lower holte end, paid for a seat and I didn't sit down. The place was rocking!

    Villa beating Liverpool in 1976 5/1, unfortunatly the game was a midweek game and was never televised.. Bad memory was the Friendly against Rangers, the same year (match abandoned) UTV
