On This Day
  • Villa leave it late but secure victory against 10-man Oldham who lose a player to injury after just 10'.

  • Billy Walker scores for the first time in three but his brace makes it eleven goals in the opening eight games of the 1920-21 season as Villa record successive victories once again.

  • Villa make it six wins and two defeats in eight division one games.

  • Villa move into outright first place at the top of the first division one table after 8 games of 1920-21.

  • Villa win without Frank Barson and Clem Stephenson both of whom are suspended by the club as the fall out from their refusal to play at Spurs continues.
