On This Day
Villa's horrible run of results - if not performances - continue as they lose to fellow 7th placed side Tottentham. Yet again Villa more than hold their own before conceding goals in quick succession and it is a barely credible fourth successive defeat and fifth in six games.
With Con Martin injured and Joe Rutherford out of favour, goalkeeper Graham Cordell maakes his debut after joining from Walsall Star in September 1949.
