ON THIS DAY
Saturday, 18 December 1926
Villa beat champions Huddersfield with some ease at Villa Park but the Yorkshire side's protestations against the home side's second goal - deemed by referee Kelso to have crossed the line - lead the official to threaten the Huddersfield players with dismissal from the field of play.
Villa record three successive victories for the first time this season with goals from Arthur Dorrell, George Stephenson and Billy Walker.
Villa make it seven wins, four draws and nine defeats in their first twenty division one matches.
Villa climb to joint 15th in the table.
