ON THIS DAY

Tony Barton's Villa don't have long to wait to get revenge for their defeat in the FA Cup as they beat Norwich at Carrow Road to set up a League Cup semi final with Everton in February. But the game suffers a bizarre incident on 11' as the referee sends off Paul Rideout for wearing rings only to change his mind after a volatile protest from Villa players and staff.
