Nickname: Aston Village
Most notorious person. The Ellis
Best known song: Not known
Most obvious tactics: 11 men behind the ball – introduced in August 2006, it has become a dominant part of the Village approach ever since. Tends to break down when they go one down, but is very effective (if very boring) when they go one up in the first minute.
Greatest claim to fame: Won the FA Cup 23 times in the first ten years of the competition’s existence.
