On This Day
Friday, 25 December 1914
Harold Edgley scores for the third time in as many games as Villa win for the first time in four but the winning goal from Jimmy Leach is the subject of much Blackburn dispute as their players protest the ball had not cross the line, the referee felt otherwise.
Villa make it eight wins, five draws and five defeats in eighteen division one games and remain 7th.
