Match Media
On This Day
  • After their surprise win against then leaders Newcastle - inflicting their first defeat of the season - Villa revert to type and lose for the sixth time in eleven games under the ill-fated management committee structure.

  • Villa concede first for the eighth time in 11 games going three down inside 28 minutes at Leeds Road.

  • Villa slump further to their lowest position of the season - joint 18th.

  • Full back Stan Lynn makes his Villa debut after moving from Accrington Stanley in March 1950 

  • Centre forward Trevor Ford makes his final appearance before moving on to Sunderland later this month. Ford played for Villa between 1946-47 and 1950-51 making 127 appearances and scoring 61 goals. However Ford had contributed just two goals in 1950-51 and was clearly surplus to requirements to even this struggling Villa side.
