Didn’t a certain song come on the back of that victory!!Maybe my memory is playing tricks, but didn't that win at Villa (on the day of the poll tax riot) end a long winless sequence on the road as well?

Yes and the walk back to the station was hair raising.Certainly did. Also running battles on the dual carriageway after
How that ground has changed since
Think only 1/2 stands were open
Stood on that big open terrace
Most of it was condemned
Me too ;)Yes and the walk back to the station was hair raising.
Which I look back fondly on as it reminds me of when I had hair
Yeah I remember something along those lines after the villa game.Maybe my memory is playing tricks, but didn't that win at Villa (on the day of the poll tax riot) end a long winless sequence on the road as well?
People seem to be so passive nowadays. Been a while since the last riots! Was it when that fella got shot in Tottenham? With everything going on with the economy etc I would have expected a riot or two. Nothing.Yeah I remember something along those lines after the villa game.
But I do remember it was Strangeways riot when we were in Villa Park ( on the Sunday).
Poll tax riots were on the Saturday
Of course, great shout. And we still both went downYes, Chelsea did the same with Clive Wilson that season.
Well remembered. Peter Reid and Mark Ward, wasn't it? 2-1?Yeah I remember something along those lines after the villa game.

We thought we had it bad with Swales but Wolves were also appallingly run around that time. Spent the Steve Daley windfall on Andy Gray from their bigger neighbours Villa as an act of aggression and a statement, he was instead an injury prone crock and instead of buying a squad, their ageing team collapsed. All the way down to the fourth division in short orderCertainly did. Also running battles on the dual carriageway after
