ON THIS DAY

Saturday, 31 December 1927

Villa's terrible run to the end of 1927 continues as they lose for the eighth time in ten games, failing to score for the third game in succession and make it eight wins, four draws and eleven defeats in their twenty three division one games. Meanwhile, goalkeeper Ben Olney made his Villa debut aged 28 after joining from Derby County earlier this month.
