Wednesday, 3 December 1930
Jack Mandley scores in successive games as Villa with second placed Portsmouth
Villa have one win in their last eight League games having started the season with seven wins in ten, as a period of ill-luck and poor play seems to have removed them completely from the title race.
Nevertheless in their seventeen division one games Villa have now scored FORTY SIX goals second only to leaders Arsenal.
