ON THIS DAY
Wednesday, 19 December 1928
Villa bounce back from defeat at Leeds Road to put five past Manchester City with braces from Joe Beresford and Dicky York and a goal on his first appearance since the opening day of the season for Jimmy Gibson in an unaccustomed forward lying role.
As a result Villa make it ten wins, two draws and six defeats in their eighteen division one games having scored 35 goals in their last eleven matches.
