On This Day
Villa's first league visit to Fulham ends in defeat.
Villa's unbeaten run comes to an end despite Freddie Haycock's first goal for the club as they are beaten at Fulham to make it just five wins in their last twenty second tier games.
Villa lose successive games in all competitions as their four game unbeaten run comes to an end to make it five wins in the last twenty second tier games and an overall record of nine wins, ten draws and seven defeats in twenty six division two matches.
Meanwhile, despite having hit twelve goals already this season and contributed two assists in this game alone, forward Ronnie Dix made the last of his 103 Villa appearances during which time he scored 30 goals before moving on to Derby County in February 1937.
