On This Day

Saturday, 12 September 1970

  • Villa are held at Oakwell to fall back to joint third with Mansfield, two points off leaders Fulham and one behind Bradford.

  • Vic Crowe's Villa come down after the euphoria of beating first division Burnley in the League Cup second round at Villa Park to draw at home to Barnsley in the third tier. As a result, Villa make it three wins, two draws and a defeat in six division three games so far this season.

What they Said

Brighton & Hove Albion.png

"Is Jimmy Brown a good player? What do you think?

โ€œYes, he's going to be a great player.

โ€œHe won the corner from which we scored, and during the whole game I donโ€™t think he stopped running.

โ€œIt was his first full League game of the season, although he has played in the League Cup.

โ€œIt wasnโ€™t a good match against Barnsley, but I think the players who came in because of injuries did fairly well.

โ€œThings [injuries] have happened all at once.

โ€œIt was only a free games ago that we had a settled side.

โ€œThen a crop of injuries meant making quite a few changes.

โ€œBut for all that I donโ€™t think Barnsley would have scored if they hadnโ€™t had that penalty.โ€

Vic Crowe.
