Match Media
On This Day
  • Villa's inconsistent start to the season continues as they make it two wins and two defeats in four division one games.

  • Villa win their first home game of the season as Pongo Waring scores his third goal of the campaign

  • Waring and Dai Astley now have four goal involvements apiece (3 Goals, 1 Assist) across the first four games of the season.

  • Villa score first and keep a clean sheet for the first time in 1933-34

  • For the second game in a row Villa have a referee who appears not to be totally clear on the rules of the game as he continually pulls up the Villa forwards for what were at best marginal offside decisions.

  • Villa climb to joint 4th.
