ON THIS DAY
Saturday, 30 November 1957
A poor refereeing performance from Pullin sees Preston and former Villain Tommy Thomson gifted an equaliser and Villa cannot turn it around, settling for a draw and no win in three.
Eric Houghton's Villa draw for the second time in three but have now not won in four to make it five wins, four draws and eleven defeats in twenty division one games this season.
