On This Day
Following Joe Rutherford's injury at Bolton which proved to be more serious than expected George Martin opts to select defender Con Martin as Villa goalkeeper.
Con had kept goal for 6 minutes at Bolton and had a run out in the Central League reserve game at Bury in the week as George Martin preferred the part time, novice 'keeper to promoting a reserve.
The decision, met with concern and bafflement from some, proved to be inspired as Martin made a series of strong saves as Villa raced into a 3-0 lead at half time.
Johnny Dixon scores two and creates one as Villa beat Derby and make it one win and one defeat so far this season.
