On This Day
Villa, 4-0 behind at half time, concede six for the second successive game as Bobby Tambling hits five for the visitors to leave Villaโs season at a new low and anger at the board reaching fever pitch. Villa sit 19th in the table, level on points with Sunderland and Sheffield United, one point above the relegation places. Meanwhile, helpful as ever, Tony Hateley makes his SIXTH transfer request.
Dick Taylor's Villa concede twelve goals in two games as they are hammered for the second successive game - this time at home as Bobby Tambling scores five - to make it two wins, one draw and five defeats in eight League games so far this season.
What they Said
SEVERAL hundred angry Aston Villa supporters demonstrated outside the Trinity Road entrance to Villa Park after Villa's 6-2 home defeat by Chelsea on Saturday.
This was Villa's fifth defeat in eight games this season; and some of the demonstrators chanted: "The board must go." and "We want Harry Kartz" a reference to the Birmingham businessman who has twice been unsuccessful in attempts to gain election to the Villa board.
When more than 50 policemen on foot and two mounted policemen moved in to break up the crowd, the demonstrators dispersed quietly.
While the demonstration was going on, Tony Hateley, the Villa centre-forward who has scored 84 goals in his three years with the club, saw manager Dick Taylor to make a verbal requestโhis sixthโfor a transfer.
