Ten Unsung Heroes Of Aston Villa
1) Bosko Jankovic - goals for Middlesbrough v Ipswich which won the
league.
2) Unknovrn Gypsy Woman - the first of many to curse at Sty Andrews
3) Terry Darracott - lovely near post dummy allowing God in for the
Winner, 1977
4) Brendan Batson - nicely weighted back pass letting in Withe for a
vital winner v Olbiyun, 1981
5) Keith Burkinshaw - actually paid money for Gordon Smith
6) Alex Ferguson - Thank you very much for ooh aah
7) Dario Gradi - for allowing David Platt to develop as a footballer at
Crewe
8) My Uncle Jimmy - taking me to my first Villa fave v Preston North End,
1971.
9) David Geddis clearing off the line on his debut. Start of a revival
which halted a brief "Saunders Out Campaign" in 1979/80
10) Bruce Springsteen - the only decent performance at Villa Park in 1988
