Match Media
On This Day
  • Billy Walker scored for the twelfth time in the opening nine games of the season but Villa are held for the first time to make it six wins, a draw and two defeats in nine division one games.

  • Villa are held for the first time this season but extend their unbeaten run to three to make it six wins, a draw and two defeats in nine division one games.

  • Villa recall Frank Barson and Clem Stephenson following their dispute with the club, refusal to play at White Hart Lane and subsequent one game suspension, however it is an uneasy peace with both players likely to be in the final knockings of their Villa careers.

  • Ironically there is trouble in the Oldham camp too with a number of players jettisoned since the previous Saturday's game and others playing demoralised.

  • Villa remain 1st but are joined at the top of the table by Everton. Villa face struggling Preston next.
