I was at the game Filbert St End (under boxes). One of the best ever games I saw (even losing 2-4). Great Villa side (which they went on to prove). Even went to Villa away (losing 2-0) on a British Rail special and a mass brawl at Witton Lane station after! I’m 62 now, still remember good old days!!
at 10.58 look at tackle on Mortimer. Love the way Dennis just gets on with it. If that was today's players they would be rolling around on the floor to get his opponent sent off.
agreed. honest football played by honest players.
The laughable thing is the bloke complained about the decision.
I remember this game so well.
My late grandmother's birthday and Andaniti winning the Grand National.
Great side we had. So beautifully balanced.
Thanks, VillaBoy. All sorts of memories from this one. For some reason I remember everyone singing along to Einstein A Go-Go by Landscape on the juke box in the pub before the game! However the abiding memory is the Villa fans in the seats listening to their radios and relaying the Ipswich score at West Brom to the us behind the goal. They were getting beat and lost 3-1. Every Albion goal was met with wild rejoicing. UTV
I was in the seats on side opposite the main stand. That was was a pressure game in which Villa really rose to the occasion.
Peter Withe & Jimmy Rimmer were in so many successful teams across the land yet had hardly any Caps.
Forgotten names...Cowans. Good player...Wallington very good goalkeeper.. Saunders great manager.
Glad you mentioned Wallington, he was very underrated. Peter Shilton who Wallington was once understudy to was a fan.
Gordon Cowans is far from forgotten in my neck of the woods.
Wallington was my pe teacher at school and was a brilliant guy
@@VanderlyndenJengold Used to see him drinking in Lichfield with Tony Morley not so long ago before Covid.
Rimmer having an absolute mare!
Its a mystery why Greenwood failed to put into the 1982 squad players like Cowans, Morley into Espana team...he should have tried these players post 1980..?
Alan young looked a very decent player
Love these clips VB, is it all your old videos?
proper football
Notice how the commentator does not bore the pants off everyone by constantly prattling on about utter irrelevances to the game in hand.
The late great Hugh Jons.
No histrionics , just good old plain commentating , unlike to days commentators that speak like the viewing public have no idea what's going on
Great ground filbert street
Proper Villa colours back then,not like the wishy washy crap today
it was more like a football match between top teams fighting for the title rather than leicester fighting against relegation in the 1980/81 season.
Great upload but it would be better to watch if you didn't show the score.
I agree he shouldn’t put the score in the title would make it more enjoyable to those who don’t recall the game.
@@66smedrock @vinny I hear you both but as a guess, I think that's how people search for it by the score. If Villa v Leicester was only typed in to the search icon, there'd be dozens to choose from but there's not many 2-4 scorelines between the two sides. If people don't recall the game, then they're not going to recall the year either.
Rimmer . He couldn't catch a cold 😂
I wonder if the villa manager knows he is top of the league 🤐. Nah, someone must tell him . Duh.
