On This Day
  • Villa are ripped apart by lowly Liverpool who leapfrog Villa to leave them still languishing in 21st place with a record of Lost 6, Drawn 2 and Won 2 under Dick Taylor.

  • Dick Taylor's Villa end their surprise but welcome three consecutive League and Cup wins with a heavy defeat at Anfield as they make it two wins, two draws and six defeats in division one this season.
