I was in the same class as Brendan ormsby nephew whos name was Robert ormsby at st chads primary school in Newtown in the late 70s, always remember him telling me about his uncle playing for Villa

The same Garry Thompson that later played for villa? I still remember his purple patch in 1987-88 in the second division.

[@mohdazmi10]

the first time Ken McNaught played against Aston Villa since his transfer to WBA. brendan ormsby did not really replace him and transferred to Leeds later.

Pity the final scores are included in the titles.

[@utv5490]

I was at this match, the Villa fans waved a load of bananas at McNaught and said give them to Cyrille........he didn't look well pleased!!!
