ON THIS DAY
Saturday, 22 September 1962
Derek Dougan is sent off for violent play and Villa collapse to a second successive defeat. As a result Villa slump to 10th in the table.
Joe Mercer's Villa lose for the second successive game and the third time in four as their early season form falters to make it five wins, a draw and four defeats in ten division one games so far in 1962-63.
