They are one of the oldest and most successful football clubs in England, having won the First Division Championship seven times and the FA Cup seven times. Villa also won the 1981–82 European Cup, one of only five English clubs to win what is now the UEFA Champions League. Aston Villa has the fourth highest total of major honours won by an English club.
