ON THIS DAY
Saturday, 14 January 1939
  • Against the run of play a defensive error lets Blackpool in to score an undeserved opener before an Eric Houghton brace, one from the penalty spot, puts Villa in command before a second half goal from Freddie Haycock - his third in two games confirms Villa's sixth win in ten top flight games.

  • Villa return to League action and record their sixth win in ten top flight games to make it ten wins, four draws and ten defeats in twenty four division one games so far this season.
