ON THIS DAY
Tuesday, 23 April 1957
Playing their 9th game in 21 days and second in 24 hours, Villa are forced to raid the reserves again before losing Tommy Southren to injury for the majority of the second half.
Unsurprisingly given the situation Villa lose but the scoreline proves very flattering to a Wolves side with nothing to play for.
Villa make it fourteen wins, fifteen draws and twelve defeats in forty one Division One games this season under Eric Houghton.
Goalkeeper Mike Pinner made his last appearance for Villa before moving on to Sheffield Wednesday in December 1957. Pinner played for Villa between 1954-55 and 1956-57 making 4 appearances.
