ON THIS DAY
Saturday, 3 November 1951
  • Villa play bottom side Burnley and lose - their 6th defeat in 8 - as they continue to surrender points to teams and circumstances that they should have no issues with beating.

  • The hard luck stories however are wearing thin but once again Villa suffer injuries that leave them with 'keeper Cordell and centre forward Davy Walsh incapacitated for 54 of the 90 minutes and 84 respectively,

  • Ultimately Villa could not hang on with 9-men despite the paucity of the opposition and it was yet another defeat under George Martin.
