On This Day
  • Graham Turner's Villa are beaten at home by Tottenham to make it three wins in seven League games, losing three.

  • Villa lose for the third time in five games under Graham Turner as they fall back to 10th in the first division table.

What they Said

“Spurs will be among the honours and probably in the top three by the end of the season.

“They were missing four class players today and they brought in class replacement.

“Spurs dictated to us in the first half, and we were having out best spell when we gave away that silly goal.”

Graham Turner.
