THRILLER AT THE VILLA
While Aston Villa showed a deficit of class by gouging their supporters when it came to the admission fee, the club got pretty much everything else spot on ahead of last night’s win over Bayern Munich. Off the pitch, their Big Cup Boys of 1982 were hosted at an official function held to honour their historic achievement, while their recently departed comrade Gary Shaw was remembered on the front of yesterday’s matchday programme. In another classy touch, the former striker was also listed one last time on a team-sheet, his name appearing at the bottom of the list of current squad of Villa players trying to emulate the achievements of he and his teammates.
