Dennis Parsons replaces Ken Jones.
Not recorded
Villa's poor start to the season continues and though they score three away from home and make it 7 goals in three games they have now conceded 12 with one point to show for it.
Johnny Dixon scores two and creates one but the truth is Villa are never in the game, trailing 1-5 at half time.

Lost
3-6
