Aston Villa FA Cup Winners, 1894-5: A Historic Moment in Football History This evocative photograph captures the Aston Villa FA Cup Winners of the 1894-95 season, a momentous occasion in the annals of English football. The team, dressed in their iconic claret and blue stripes, proudly display the coveted FA Cup trophy, a symbol of their hard-earned victory. Standing in the front row, we find the team's trainer, Grierson, and the Hon. Secretary, Dunkley. In the second row, we identify the goalkeeper, Johnstone, flanked by full-backs Spencer and Wilkes. Centre-halves Lees and Rinder are next, with forwards Margoschis (Chairman), Reynolds, and Devey (Captain) completing the lineup. The team's success was not limited to the pitch, as evidenced by the presence of Welford, Ramsay (Secretary), Athersmith, Chait, Cowan, Russell, Hodgetts, and Smith. These men, who held various positions within the club, played a crucial role in the team's triumph. The Victorian era, a time of great social change and progress, saw the birth of modern football. This photograph encapsulates the spirit of camaraderie, determination, and achievement that defined the sport during this period. The men in this image, with their focused expressions and confident poses, embody the passion and dedication that continues to fuel the beautiful game to this day. As we marvel at this historic moment, we are reminded of the rich heritage of football and the enduring legacy of Aston Villa FC.
