  • Villa lose for the first time in four to make it twelve wins, ten draws and thirteen defeats in their thirty five division one games so far this season. 

  • Meanwhile, forward George Travers made his final appearance for Villa aged 21 before moving on to QPR in May 1909. Travers had made four appearances for the club and hit a hat-trick on debut before scoring his fourth and final goal on his last appearance. 

  • Left back Walter Kimberley also made the last of his seven appearances for Villa aged 23 before moving on to Coventry City in August 1912.
