On This Day
Villa beat relegation threatened neighbours Birmingham as a new complexion is placed over Ron Saunders' ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ฅ๓ ฎ๓ ง๓ ฟ departure with his pending arrival as boss at St Andrew's following what increasingly seems to have been one row too far and a playing staff no longer fully on board with the great man.
Reigning Champions Villa ๐ฉ win for the first time under Tony Barton ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ฅ๓ ฎ๓ ง๓ ฟ who remains unbeaten in the League after three games and as a result makes it ๐ฉ seven wins, ๐จ nine draws and ๐ฅ ten defeats after ๐ 26 games of their title defence.
Goalkeeper Jimmy Rimmer ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ฅ๓ ฎ๓ ง๓ ฟ keeps his โ 75th clean sheet in ๐ 239 appearances in a Villa shirt (31%) whilst conceding ๐ฅ 257 Goals (1.08 per Game).

What they Said
"The doctor told me that if I want to play I can, because I won't do the shoulder any more harm.
โBut he also said I would face a big pain barrier.
"I had treatment last night and today and I'll probably have more on the plane. With a painkilling injection I'm hopeful of getting through."
"His [Garry Thompsonโs] foot didn't connect. I did the damage when I fell. I don't hold any grudges. We had both been dishing out some stick."
Allan Evans.
"The performance was a 'continuation of our improved confidence and ensures that the players are in the right frame of 'mind for the European Cup."
Tony Barton.
