On This Day
  • Villa record a seventh victory in eight unbeaten games in all competitions.

  • Harry Hampton hits a hat-trick and Joe Bache scores another as the Blackburn 'keeper has a day to forget.

  • Villa take the lead early in the first half going in behind at the interval. In the second half Villa again take the lead only for Blackburn to peg them back and so George Ramsay's side have to wait for a winner three minutes from time to clinch the victory.

  • Villa make it fourteen wins, four draws and five defeats in their twenty three division one games so far this season.

  • Villa move into joint first place alongside County having played two fewer games than the Notts side.

  • Midfielder Arthur Moss makes his debut for Villa aged 22 after moving from Whitchurch in September 1908.
