Joe Tate replaces Tommy Wood.
Villa lose the derby match with Albion as despite having their share of first half play Albion score just before the internal before two late goals add the icing to their victory.
Villa fail to score for the third time in thirteen games - as many times as they had done so in the entirety of 1930-31.
Villa now have two clean sheets in 13 games in 1931-32.
Villa make it seven wins, two draws and four defeats in thirteen division one games so far in 1931-32.
Villa, with three games in hand on the victors, sit joint 9th in the table but would sit outright second if they won their still yet to be scheduled games in hand.
Up next are neighbours Birmingham who share 9th place with Villa.
