MATCH SUMMARY

Tommy Cummings’ Villa put on a keystone cops style match as judgement is questioned on and off the pitch. Villa lose for the third time in four games but that is just the start. Peter Broadbent is injured and limps off before half time but isn’t replaced until the start of the second half. Before that, Willie Anderson’s scissor kick seems destined for goal until Barry Stobart tries to help it in and sends it onto the bar and over. The thing is this wasn’t just a bad day, it was already a bad four games.
