On This Day
Billy McNeill's ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ณ๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฟ Villa stop a run of ๐ฅ three defeats as they recover from 1-3 down to ๐จ draw with 17th placed Manchester United
Villa are without a ๐ฉ win in seven under McNeill and have just ๐ฉ eleven wins in their last ๐ forty six League games ๐ฅ losing twenty two.
Villa's winless run extends to seven in all competitions as they remain 19th in the table.
Midfielder Steve Hodge ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ฅ๓ ฎ๓ ง๓ ฟ 24 makes his 70th & final appearance in a Villa shirt having agitated for a move for months. Hodge moves on to Tottenham Hotspur for a fee of ยฃ650,000 with Villa having paid Nottingham Forest ยฃ400,000 for his services 16 months earlier. Villa had turned Hodge into an England international and amongst many complaints he claimed leaving was in order to boost his international chances.
Ironically however, once leaving struggling Villa, Hodge found his national team opportunities much more limited. Hodge left under a cloud that remains to this day with a record of ๐ฉ W22 ๐จ D22 ๐ฅ L26, โฝ 16 Goals and ๐ฅ 9 Assists.
