On This Day
Sunderland take an early lead at Roker before being reduced to 10 men due to injury, Villa cannot score despite continued attacking pressure before the home side score just on time with their only attack of the second half.
Villa fail to score for the twelfth time this season as they are beaten in successive games by League rivals Sunderland and make it four defeats in six division one games so far in 1924 and eleven wins, eleven draws and nine defeats in thirty one division one games.
Meanwhile, centre back Alex McClure and centre forward Percy Varco made their Villa debuts aged 31 and 19 after joining from Birmingham and Torquay United in December 1923 respectively.
