On This Day
Saturday, 27 September 1924
For the second time in three games Villa concede in the first minutes and for the fourth time in five in the first quarter of an hour.
Consequently Villa are chasing the game from the off but thanks to Billy Walker scoring for the fourth successive game Villa fight back to draw.
Villa draw for the fifth time in seven games as they begin the season in slow fashion as they did in 1923-24.
George Ramsay's management committee drop Len Capewell (2 Goals this season) and Dicky York (1 Goal and 3 Assists) to the reserves and call up Billy Armfield and Percy Varco in their place.
With seven points from seven games Villa remain joint 12th with second bottom Forest up next.
