On This Day
  • Villa cause controversy as they make changes to their XI and field a weakened team for the trip to Notts County. Ironically one of the 'weakened' team is Joe Bache, a player who would go on to be one of the greatest players of his generation.

  • George Ramsay's reigning champions return to League action and lose for the third time in four in their title defence.

  • Reigning champions Villa lose for the third time in four to make it nine wins, eight draws and nine defeats in their twenty six division one games. 

  • Meanwhile Forward and future Villa great Joe Bache made his debut aged 21 after joining from Stourbridge FC.

  • Centre back Chris Mann made his final appearance for Villa aged 28 before moving on to Burton United. 

  • Forward Willie McAuley made his final appearance for Villa aged 21 before moving on to Portsmouth. 

  • Forward Albert Brown made his final appearance for Villa aged 21 before moving on to Southampton.
