On This Day
Saturday, 4 September 1965
Villa win their first game of the season after five attempts but have to mount a huge rearguard action to do so after Tony Hateley lumbered Villa in front. As a result of their first two point haul of the campaign, Villa climb to 19th, one point above the relegation and level on points with Fulham and West Ham.
Dick Taylor's Villa win for the first time this season to make it one win, a draw and three defeats in five League games.
