ON THIS DAY

Wednesday, 31 August 1949

  • Villa lose for the first time in 1949-50 as they suffer grave misfortune against Derby for the second time this season and second time in three division one matches.

  • Villa take the lead, then lose Les Smith after just 5', and play the entire game with 10 men and also miss a first half penalty.

  • To make matters even more galling it is former Villa favourite Frank Broome who sets up Derby's equaliser. Derby then take the lead after a foul on Con Martin ends in an errant backpass before the another backpass, this time from Frank Moss, puts Derby 1-3 ahead.

  • Incessant attacking from the far superior Villa side however can do nothing to stop their 18 match undefeated run.
