The history of Aston Villa F.C. from 1961 to the current season covers the fluctuating fortunes of the club during the 1960s and 1970s, the European Cup victory in 1982 and the present day's Premiership club. The late 1960s was a turbulent time for the club and pressure from fans led to a change of ownership and management. The problems started when the club was relegated from the first tier of English football for the third time, under manager Dick Taylor in 1967. Within two years, pressure from supporters had led to the resignation of the board of directors. The club was then relegated to the Third Division. In the 1971 72 season Aston Villa returned to the Second Division as champions with a record 70 points. In 1973 Ron Saunders was appointed manager and by 1977 he had led the club back into the First Division and into European competition. The club was back among the elite and it continued to have much success under Saunders and won the league in the 1980 81 season. Saunders' resignation halfway through the 1981 82 season came as a surprise, with the club in the quarter-final of the European Cup.
