On This Day
Villa follow up their remarkable 4-4 draw with title chasing Manchester United with a loss at Everton to leave them with one win in fourteen games.
Hopelessly beaten in the first half Villa at least fight back in the second although achieving parity is beyond them and Eric Houghton appears very far from the solution to Villa's post war malaise.
Villa lose for the fourth time in five and are now without a win in eleven to make it one win, seven draws and six losses in fourteen games this season.
