Get your hands on our brilliant Aston Villa European Cup 40th anniversary souvenir special

Ahead of the 40th anniversary of Aston Villa winning the European Cup, the Birmingham Mail and BirminghamLive are celebrating the club's historic triumph with a special print souvenir.

You can relive the greatest day in Villa's 148-year history by ordering the 64-page publication, which is packed full of exclusive content. We're celebrating Villa's glorious victory over Bayern Munich by bringing you in-depth interviews with the stars of that great day, plus stories from Barton’s Army of travelling supporters. We retrace Villa’s victorious march across Europe when they conquered Iceland, East Germany, the Soviet Union and Belgium before an unforgettable date with destiny in Rotterdam.

From Cornwall to Australia, we've tracked down heroes from that incredible night, including the man of the match Peter Withe, captain marvel Dennis Mortimer, midfield maestro Gordon ‘Sid’ Cowans, tricky winger Tony Morley and tough-tackling defender Allan Evans. Along with the legends of '82, we have the stories of the fans who travelled the length and breadth of Europe supporting the boys in claret-and-blue.

You will also be able to read the original round-by-round match reports by the Birmingham Mail’s Leon Hickman and see iconic photographs from the journey to Rotterdam. Also including a poster centrespread, our in-depth 64-page special publication is a must for any true Villa fanatic.

It’s available for you to buy at £2.50 from Thursday, May 5, in stores across Birmingham or you can order now from our online shop here. This is a limited edition Villa souvenir - you do not want to miss it.
