What about the fantastic penalty save in the last minute , in the 5-4 win against Norwich in the late 70,s. Amazing game , great goals, and an amazing game.
I was there, remembering the greatest goal I've ever seen live......Ian Wallace's spectacular overhead kick from outside the area! A brilliant game, & Norwich played their part in a 5-4 victory for the mighty Sky Blues!😀😀😀
@@robbom68 Will go with that sir, Also 1970 World Cup ' Gordon Banks saves header from Pele a Momentous performance must be up there. Proper Carpet football played then and no moaning about the fixture list or feeling tired and state of the pitch unlike today's Mamby Pamby and prima donna gangs . Kind regards Glynn n greetings from Stourbridge West Midlands UK and Aston Villa fan since 1968.🤝
If that was the greatest, i dread to think what the worst was like. Now if it had been 2 inches lower, it would be a contender. Still not a patch on the village blacksmith who broke the bar and the ball went in

didn't know if he'd miss it or not. Well worth watching
Not sure. Jim Blyth's save from Phil Neal (City 1 - 0 Liverpool, Feb 1978) tops it for me.
Agreed and JB's save against Norwich in 77

Remember being relieved behind the goal.
Too much information kid :)
@@robbom68 i remember in my school team, the manager always pulled me off at half time...
never let traction engines take penalties. Theyre clumsy and rash. Wheres the finesse? Its only 12 yards.
What was great about that?
Think it's a joke mate...
