On This Day
  • Jack Mandley scores one and creates one as the scores for the fourth successive game but Villa are held by division two Bradford in the third round of the FA Cup ahead of a Villa Park replay.

  • Bradford take the lead against the run of play before Mandley's two quickfire contributions hand Villa the lead going into the interval but Villa lose Alec Talbot to injury with half and hour to play and the 10-men succumb to an equaliser.
