On This Day
Villa's poor results at the start 1926-27 season under new Secretary Manager Billy Smith continues but once again they more than hold their own against a Liverpool side described as being "hammered" by Villa for a second time in three games and who "can count themselves lucky to have taken three points from the Villa".
Villa, shorn of Billy Walker once again following his injury last time out, suffer more misfortune as Len Capewell is incapacitated with injury for the second successive game.
Villa concede first for the fourth successive game under Billy Smith.
Villa are no joint 16th but classified 21st, one place ahead of pointless Everton.
