On This Day
Villa beat Orient to sit 6th in the table and the season looks like it's shaping up to be a good one. Nicely placed in the table, through to the later rounds of the League Cup and with a host of first teamers to return including top scoring centre forward Derek Dougan.
Joe Mercer's Villa go six unbeaten winning five to make it eight wins, two draws and four defeats in fourteen division one games so far in 1962-63. Meanwhile, full back John Neal made his final appearance for Villa aged 30 before moving on to Southend United in November 1962. Neal played for Villa between 1959-60 and 1962-63 making 114 appearances.
