On This Day
Vic Crowe's ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ท๓ ฌ๓ ณ๓ ฟ Villa return to winning ways after their first defeat of the season to ๐ฉ beat Carlisle and make it ๐ฉ three wins and a ๐ฅ defeat in the League so far this season..
Villa climb back to joint first in the table alongside Nottingham Forest, Burnley and Sheffield Wednesday.
Villa are inspired by Bruce Riochโs ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ณ๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฟ unexpected return from injury but far less inspiring is the further machinations at the club involving Herbert Douglas Ellis, that leads Rioch ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ณ๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฟ to release an unprecedented public statement.
Right back John Gidman ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ฅ๓ ฎ๓ ง๓ ฟ 18 makes his ๐ debut appearance in a Villa shirt after graduating from the youth team to become the 560th player to play for Villa in first team League or Cup football.
What they Said
"As spokesman for the players, I told Mr. Hartley [the Villa chairman appointed after the removal of Herbert Douglas Ellis] that we are very happy with the way things are and that we don't want any more changes.
"The players did not want to become involved, but something happened which made us involved so we had to state our position."
Bruce Rioch.
