60’s. Villa were relegated to the old Third Division in 69/70 and were beaten 4-0 at Ninian Park in October 1969.

70’s. This member of the Dave Clark 5 fan club played up front for Villa during this decade, can you recognise him?

80’s. Who was Villa’s manager when they won the European Cup in 1982 and who was the European Cup winning captain who managed them later in the decade?

90’s. Villa won the League Cup in 95/96 with a squad which included five players who would later turn out for City as well as someone who would become something of a hate figure for Cardiff fans – name the six players I’m talking about.
