On This Day
Arthur Dorrell scores for the third time in four games to get Villa back to winning ways.
Villa complete the double over Tottenham as Spurs are beaten at White Hart Lane.
It's Villa's fifth successive win against the North Londoners.
Villa make it five wins and two defeats in seven division one games so far in 1920-21.
Villa move back to first in the table, level on points with Huddersfield Town.
The game however is overshadowed by the refusal of Frank Barson and Clem Stephenson to play due to an ongoing dispute that they should be allowed to reside in Sheffield and Newcastle respectively and journey to Birmingham as required.
