ON THIS DAY

Saturday, 15 October 1983

A typically embarrassing performance from Small Heath sees the yobbish protagonists being led by two players who couldn't make the grade at Villa. The toe curlingly embarrassing Robert Hopkins and his mate Noel Blake simply highlighted the gulf in class between the two clubs on and off the pitch. Tony Barton's Villa make it five wins, one draw and three defeats in nine League games as Peter Withe's eight of the season dispatches near neighbours Birmingham at Villa Park.
