AVFC HISTORY MATCH SUMMARY

Villa bounce back from their first defeat of the season to beat Carlisle and climb back to the summit following the surprise return of Bruce Rioch from injury. Sadly though Riochโ€™s focus, and the Villa players, is interrupted by further machinations at the club involving Herbert Douglas Ellis, that leads Rioch to release an unprecedented public statement.

MATCH QUOTES

Villa.gif
2509-2.png
"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.
