ON THIS DAY
Saturday, 18 September 1948
Villa's messy season continues but they at least claim a point having once again led a game only to be buried by the opposition. It takes a last gasp goal from Les Smith to collect only Villa's fourth point in nine games in 1948-49 as George Edwards scores in his third successive game.
