On This Day
Villa get their third away win in four games in 1946-47 as they win at Ewood thanks to a George Edwards goal but it's injuries that dominate the day as the goalscorer, Arthur Haynes and Billy Goffin all sustaining injury with Goffin being forced to retire from the field of play with 15' remaining.
