71 for me. A certain Martin Chivers got the goals for spurs. Made no difference the players came over to applaud us at the end and to a man said that could not believe the support we had given them. Remember them saying our reaction at the final whistle was as if we had won it. Back then they used to print a voucher on the back page of the programme, the more vouchers you had the more chance of getting a ticket. Travelled down by train on a football special. It was my first time at Wembley and the memory will stay with me forever.
Yes a great day! Lochhead should’ve scored for us. I remember watching Gilzean and thinking what a Rolls Royce of a player, what class. But it was special because we were back in the big time, yes Aston Villa were back!
