On This Day
A third successive League defeat and Villa are a "faded force", "running around in circles" and "getting nowhere".
Reigning Champions Villa make it ๐ฉ four wins, ๐จ seven draws and ๐ฅ seven defeats in their title defence.
Centre back Noel Blake ๐ฏ๐ฒ makes his first appearance in 19 months as the reserve team player is a surprise call up 74 games after his equally surprising three game spell in 1979-80 amidst Villaโs worst injury crisis in decades. Blakeโs fourth appearance in a Villa shirt would also be his last before moving on to Birmingham City for a fee of ยฃ55,000 in September 1982.
Left back Colin Gibson ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ฅ๓ ฎ๓ ง๓ ฟ makes his ๐ 100th start in a Villa shirt (104 Appearances).
Midfielder Terry Bullivant ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ฅ๓ ฎ๓ ง๓ ฟ makes his ๐ first appearance in 21 months and first for 83 games.
