MATCH TIMELINE

Saturday, 17 October 1953

ON THIS DAY

Eric Houghton's Villa fall to a third successive defeat and their first Villa Park reverse of the campaign to make it seven wins and six defeats in thirteen division one games so far this season, as their promising early form under the new boss apparently becomes a distant memory.
