  • Even this early in the season, Villa suffer a ‘shock’ defeat as they are beaten at home by bottom side Mansfield (one point in six games) despite having had eighteen shots on goal (Mansfield four) in a game they, on balance, should have been victorious in by at least six goals. 

  • Vic Crowe's Villa suffer their first real setback of the season as they are beaten at home by bottom of the table Mansfield to make it four wins, one draw and two defeats in division three so far this campaign.
