On This Day
  • Villa lose their final game of the season to make it eight losses in their final thirteen matches of the campaign. 

  • Since being dumped out of the cup by Notts County in March, the season unravelled as a title tilt, then a challenge for runners up spot was thrown away.

  • Villa though end the season with a top five finish - their first since 1913-14 - thanks to the far better form they had shown earlier in the season.
