Career Notes
Robert Hopkins
No player has had a longer interval between games in Villa's history than Hopkins.
Between his second appearance on 29 March 1980 and his third and final appearance (and only start) in October 1982, 924 days had elapsed.
Hopkins didn't even have the bench to comfort him, making just 6 unused substitute appearances in 1,155 days.
Hopkins however didn't have to wait so long to finally be released by Villa, being jettisoned 84 days after his final game and 59 days after his last squad appearance.
