On This Day
  • Joe Bache scores a brace but the scoreline barely does justice to Villa's dominance and the game is overshadowed by an incident involving future Villa 'keeper Sam Hardy who assaults Harry Hampton from behind in a fit of rage following a charging on the 'keeper.

  • Villa's first win in three makes it nine wins, three draws and five defeats in their seventeen division one games so far in 1909-10.

  • Villa climb back to joint 6th but are now four points behind leaders Blackburn who like Villa have played 17 games.
