On This Day
Villa contrive to lose to bottom side Newcastle as David Norton errs in the offside trap to gift the hosts the lead before a Tony Daley spectacular levels the score. Peter Beardsley scores a second half goal to leave Villa winless in ten, 21st and two points off safety with eleven games left to play.
Villa lose for the first time in four matches under Billy McNeill but now have just twelve wins in their last fifty eight League games having lost twenty eight.
Tony Daley makes his 50th start in a Villa shirt (65 Appearances) to make it W14 D21 L30, 7 Goals and 5 Assists so far in his Villa career.
