ON THIS DAY
Wednesday, 28 August 2013
Villa see off newly promoted League One side Rotherham in the 2nd round of the League Cup.
Following the giant killings suffered at the hands of League Two Doncaster and Championship side Millwall in 2012-13, Paul Lambert's Villa make short work of League One Rotherham in more signs that the season could prove far better than the last.
Jed Steer makes his debut in a Villa shirt after his move from Norwich in July to become the 861st player to play for Villa in first team League or Cup football.
Joe Bennett secures his 10th win in a Villa shirt on his 31st appearance (27 Starts) to make it W10 D7 L14, 3 Assists, 5 Bookings and 1 Red Card so far in his Villa career.
