ON THIS DAY
Saturday, 25 October 1958
Villa put in another improved performance, this time however against high-flying Bolton they get their just rewards and take the points to climb off the bottom of the table. Eric Houghton though is missing once again on a scouting mission for "desperately needed" players that still have not materialised.
Eric Houghton's Villa win for the first time in four to make it four wins, three draws and eight defeats in fifteen division one games so far this season.
