On This Day
Saturday, 20 December 1902
Villa bounce back from two consecutive defeats to hit four on the road and win at Bramall Lane thanks to a brace from Billy Garraty, one from Jasper McLuckie and one from a stray dog, or was it Bobby Templeton?
Villa make it six wins, two draws and seven defeats in fifteen division one games.
