On This Day
Villa score for the first time in three games to take a point from fellow strugglers Oxford but sit rock bottom, a point behind Millwall and a point from safety. Brian Godfrey is again the star as Tommy Docherty attempts to shift blame for two wins in sixteen games onto fan expectation.
Tommy Docherty's Villa fail to win for the fourteenth time in sixteen League games to make it two wins, six draws and eight losses in sixteen division two games.

Mid Table
What they Said
"At the moment, we have to beat ourselves before we can beat anyone else.
โThe lads are still playing under tremendous pressure.
โThey might be the bottom team In the league ... but people still expect so much from them.
"That's why they let Oxford off the hook.
โThey had It all sewn up until they suddenly realised they were winning comfortably with only ten minutes left.
โThen, the nearer they came to giving the Villa fans a victory, the more ragged and nervous !hey became.โ
Tommy โThe fans expect so muchโ Docherty.
