Villa lose for the first time in five but are heavily beaten and now have just one win in seven second tier games under Jimmy McMullan. The latest reverse - Villa's 40th in 99 games under McMullan - would prove to be his last as he was sacked with Villa off the pace in the promotion race despite a strong first six games. Meanwhile, midfielder Tommy Wood made the last of his 71 appearances for Villa aged 28 before moving on to Newport County in December 1936.

Villa lose four consecutive games for the first time this season and have now achieved that feat in each of the last three campaigns under Jimmy McMullan and Jimmy Hogan having previously not lost four in a row since January 1928. As a result Villa make it twelve wins in the last thirty four second tier games and an overall record of sixteen wins, twelve draws and twelve defeats in forty division two matches. Jimmy McMullan had recorded five wins, five draws and three defeats in his thirteen division two matches in charge and his successor Jimmy Hogan had now delivered eleven wins, seven draws and nine defeats in his twenty seven game spell. Meanwhile, winger Freddie Goss made his second and final appearance for Villa before moving on to Wrexham in September 1938 whilst full back George Beeson made the last of his 70 appearances before moving on to Walsall in June 1938.

Match Timeline

On This Day

Villa lose six consecutive games for the first time in their history as their first ever season in the second tier ends in disaster. Villa had made it just twelve wins in their last thirty six second tier games and delivered an overall record of sixteen wins, twelve draws and fourteen defeats in forty two division two matches to finish ninth. Jimmy McMullan had recorded five wins (38%), five draws and three defeats (23%) in his thirteen division two matches in charge and his successor Jimmy Hogan had delivered eleven wins (38%), seven draws and eleven defeats (39%) in his twenty nine game spell. As a result the jury was very much still out on Jimmy Hogan and but for a best run of seven wins in eight games in the Spring, Villaโ€™s season would have proved significantly worse. Meanwhile, midfielder Tom Griffiths made the last of his 68 appearances for Villa aged 31 before moving on to Wrexham, whilst forward Matt Moralee made his twelfth and final appearance aged 26 before moving on to Leicester City in November 1937.
