I was there - went with my Dad and I still have the flag I bought on Wembley Way

As for OTBC I recall it was sung pretty continuously by ourselves throughout the game (but memory does play tricks). Do think you have to watch and listen to the whole game but it will be there regularly.

Sadly the game wasn't that great. Whilst it took a long range shot from Ralph Coates to beat us the team who looked more likely to score deservedly won.

The same - sadly - was true in 75 when Villa were the better of two teams having an off day. Now when I was there in 1985 it was much better!
