On This Day
Tommy Dochertyโs touch continues as Villa win in the third round of the FA Cup against his former club QPR amidst further complaints about the uncompromising style Villa have adopted under his stewardship.
Tommy Docherty's Villa open 1969 seemingly a team transformed as they win a fourth successive game by beating top flight side Queens Park Rangers in the third round of the FA Cup.

What they Said
"If we wasted time Illegally after taking the lead then it was up to the referee to do something about it.
"I would rather be an unpopular winner than a good loser.
โIn any case, most sides do this instinctively in the position we were in towards the end of the game.
โLook at Leeds and their record of the last half dozen years.
"I don't give the boys orders to waste time.
โA professional often does these things naturally towards the end of a game when it pays his side.
โIt may be an unfortunate trend but it has become part of modem football."
Tommy Docherty.
