ON THIS DAY
Monday, 23 September 1957
Shorn of three key players Villa mount a valiant second half fightback against dominant Wolves but cannot avoid a second defeat to their local rivals in three matches. Nigel Sims is once again unfortunately responsible for Wolves' second goal that gave them the breathing space needed.
Eric Houghton's Villa lose for the second time in three to make it two wins, two draws and five defeats in nine division one games this season.
