Details:
Aston Villa were formed by members of the Villa Cross Wesleyan Chapel cricket team, who were looking for a sport to play during the winter months. Villa Cross was a road junction in the Birmingham neighborhood of Aston. The rampant lion in the club's emblem was supposedly suggested by early vice-president William McGregor to remind him of his Scottish roots, the lion also being present in the emblem of Scotland. Prepared (also featured on the emblem) is the club's motto. Matches between Aston Villa and arch-rival Birmingham City are known as the Second City Derby, Birmingham being England's second-largest city.
