Aston Villa European Cup Win

Caught a bit on tv last night about British clubs winning the European cup, now Aston Villa winning it was a great acheivment but what i didn't realise as they done it with not one internationalist in their team !
Alan Evans player for Scotland in the 82 world cup
 
Seem to remember Rimmer getting injured just before kick off. They put in a young keeper and most pundits thought they had no chance but he played a blinder. Some achievement but they earned it
 
It’s probably been posted before but Villa have past connections with us since the 1880s the lion on their badge is taken from ours by a guy from Glasgow called William McGregor and its thought he got the idea for their motto (Prepared) from ours Ready
