ON THIS DAY
Friday, 28 September 2018
Villa draw for the fifth time in ten Championship matches and now have just one win in eight as Steve Bruce's grip on reality becomes increasingly tenuous and increasingly hard to watch.
Villa climb to 11th after yet another draw - their 5th in 10 league games - and it already looks like automatic promotion is beyond them for the third successive season.
Once again rather than addressing the reasons and planning the response, Steve Bruce chooses to bring the focus onto himself in his now familiarly self obsessed way of thinking which to most observers can only seem to be a contributing factor in Villa’s failure to learn from their mistakes.
Conor Hourihane makes his 75th appearance in a Villa shirt (64 Starts) to make it W35 D16 L24, 14 Goals, 8 Assists and 14 Bookings so far in his Villa career.
Jonathan Kodjia collects his 10th booking in a Villa shirt on his 65th appearance (54 Starts) to make it W27 D20 L18, 23 Goals, 6 Assists, 10 Bookings and 1 Red Card so far in his Villa career.
Former Villa centre back Nathan Baker and former Villa forward Andreas Weimann lined up for Bristol City.
