  • 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.
