On This Day
Villa are held at Plymouth but remain second in the table three points behind Bristol Rovers as Fulham lose again and drop to third. Villa though should have taken both points but another refereeing error saw a good goal disallowed as the unsighted officials ruled the ball had not crossed the line.
Vic Crowe's Villa return to League action but can only draw at Home Park to make it eleven wins, seven draws and four defeats in twenty two division three games so far this season.
What they Said
“How could I send him [Bruce Rioch after injury] into that [the punches, kicks and brawling of Plymouth]?
“You only have to look at what kind of game it was.”
Vic Crowe.
“It was at least two feet over the line.
“Even a couple of their defenders admitted it was.
“The trouble was that the linesman was away down the field.”
Andy Lochhead on the error by referee Hart to disallow his goal.
