🟨 3 December 2005, Villa 1-1 Newcastle, St James' Park.
ON THIS DAY
Saturday, 3 December 2005
Villa draw with struggling Newcastle as the hangover from a poor League season to date and David O'Leary's Doncaster embarrassment continues to play out.
Villa, unbeaten in their last 3 League games, now have just 4 wins in twenty 20, with 10 losses and 6 draws under David O'Leary.
Villa have now taken 18 points from a possible 60.
Yet what was more worrying than the relegation form the team was showing under O'Leary was the manager's abject delusion about the true nature of his performance and his continued refusal to have any responsibility or accountability for his failings.
