On This Day
A goalkeeping error from Cyril Spiers after 20', losing Billy Walker to injury immediately after, conceding a penalty within three minutes, ex Villa man Barson wounds with intent, Spiers saves a second penalty, Villa lose George Stephenson to a nasty wound, have Len Capewell booked... all adds up to a highly flattering victory for the home team.
Villa lose for the first time in six, losing at Old Trafford to newly promoted Manchester United.
