On This Day
Eric Houghton scores for the second successive game but Villa are held at home as referee Gough denies Villa a crucial second half penalty with a potentially decisive impact on their battle against relegation.
Despite dropping a point in their battle against the drop Villa make it just four defeats in sixteen League games in a much improved 1936.
Villa now have three clean sheets in their last 46 games.
Overall Villa make it thirteen wins, eight draws and eighteen defeats in thirty nine games in 1935-36.
Villa remain 20th in the table and are now two points above the relegation places with three games remaining.
Villa will face Wolves again, currently level on points, 5th placed Arsenal and bottom club Blackburn, five points behind Villa, on the final day of the season.
