ON THIS DAY

Sunday, 1 March 2009

  • Despite taking a two goal lead Martin O'Neill's European gamble fails at the first hurdle as his rested first team concedes an injury time equaliser to future Villa midfielder Glenn Whelan. Off the pitch controversy continues to reign following O'Neill's actions in Moscow.

  • Martin O'Neill's strategy to focus on the Premier League at the expense of the UEFA Cup was immediately undermined by future Villa cult hero Glenn Whelan's injury time equaliser as Villa remained fourth in the table.

  • Carlos Cuéllar makes his 25th start in a Villa shirt (29 Appearances) to make it W16 D6 L7 and 4 Bookings so far in his Villa career.

  • Stiliyan Petrov contributes his 10th goal involvement in a Villa shirt on his 101st appearance (94 Starts) to make it W44 D33 L24, 5 Goals, 5 Assists and 15 Bookings so far in his Villa career.
